Pushed the improved hunting algorithm to the branch. The birth control parameters also work better now (using a 1/x function where x is weighted from the number of individuals within 2, 5 and 9 fields). New walking algorithm will come tomorrow

I guess.... we need more hunters. Or ageing with natural death, as king of nowhere suggested.

Natural death is also already implemented, though the values are much too high so far (suggestions?)
Good idea, will do so

after some tests Nordfriese created an algorithm which is not running away but delivers a decent increase in critters available. Question is whether this affects balancing too much. I am unsure about this but tend to believe it to be ok. Opinions?

We have to figure a way out how to make the gamekeepers not obsolete. Otherwise we have created a disadvantage for barbarians here.

Why would a gamekeeper want to breed a carnivore, ever? If you need to keep the herbivore population down because they are damaging your fields, hunt them and eat them like we do in real life. Busy indexing nil values

Yes : -D seems intresting mathematical game, but i still think it will tend to the extremum. Also I thik its important to solve the big questions, like how we keep multiplayer at a level where beginners can play with pros same as balancing heroes

It won't help your point if you still keep hijacking every thread with always the same stuff.
