Spent the last 24 hours getting a wolf pup to 50%. Had it stable for 12 hours using a single grill and LOADS of food nearby. Up and randomly died at 53%. Yaaaaaaay. I assume it died from too much heat? I don't know, there's zero goddamn feedback in the logs. Wasn't even a heatwave or any weird weather.

Breeding temperature mechanics are awful. Expecting the player to stay logged in and essentially stationary with a baby animal to manage it's food is horrible. Theoretically you get a break later when the baby matures and can eat out of a trough, but that doesn't matter because you still have to babysit it THE WHOLE TIME or it will freeze to death some night. The only people that can breed right now are giant companies with lots of members that can trade off on this horrible task for DAYS, or people that don't have a job or need sleep. I know it's not the intended final implementation but why the hell are you leaving a broken, horrible system in the game, gating a feature for your players rather than take it out until you can implement it right? It adds NOTHING to the game experience except rage at the moment. People have been complaining about this since launch, but hey, you're too busy digging trenches and building jumping crabs.

Bump because the breeding temperature mechanics are the most ridiculous thing I have ever seen.
