Cassandra Classic, day 53:
I constantly get mad boomrats. Sometimes a second one while the first boomrat is still making its way to my base (medium sized map). A couple of squirrels like to help out if the rodents with the explosive temperament are feeling a little under the weather.

PLEASE, PLEASE MAKE IT STOP, Tynan!!! I had between 8 or 10 boomrat attacks in 50 days. I'm beginning to hate those little, furry critters with a passion... -.-

Can you implement a sanity check for incidents with major annoyance potential (boomrats, squirrels, blight, electric discharge), please? Those incidents are usually not dangerous but get annoying if they happen repeatedly.

Oh, one other thing. Can you please remove the messages like "Joe Sixpack from the village Tears in the Tornado is derping around in your base". He is standing right there. I can see him just fine. He's taunting me. "Dare to arrest me and see what happens when the folks at home hear about it!"
You don't have to rub it in with a little message box on top of that...  ;)

PS: day 53, 13h: mad squirrel

PPS: day 55, 16h: mad muffalo; Thank Ceiling Cat, not another psychotic rodent!

PPS: day 59, 1h: another boomrat... -.-

You mean individual animals going insane, right? Not mass animal insanity.

I feel like single wanderers like this should be capturable without their village knowing about it.

Even if they knew that Joe Sixpack was scheduled to visit your colony and didnt return, how do they know that he didnt fall into a geyser or get lost and starve in a cave? oh..? whats that you say? This room? oh.. no one is in there. Definitely not Joe Sixpack. Please move along.

Just single animals but after 9 or 10 it's beginning to get to me. For comparison, I only had one power overload and two or three blights during that time.

The mass animal insanity is more interesting because it can be a challenge but a single boomrat is rather boring.

This looks like a very interesting mod. Not sure about Black Void though...
