This is so cool!!!
Any reason why the general animal list doesn't show lagomorphs or anseriformes? They have more votes in total than the last group in that list (lagomorphs have 49 votes in total and anseriformes more than 100, if you separate swans and ducks swans also have more than 80 votes in total)
Yes, they will be added to the general list as soon as you make an Iberian Ibex southeastern subspecies mod.Any reason why the general animal list doesn't show lagomorphs or anseriformes?

And the hope is...we can knock out both the Tasmanian Devil and the Wolverine within the next two packs. I have less hope for the Secretary Bird but it's not impossible. Frontier really needs to step up on their habitat birds. They've done astoundingly great with the mammals and even the habitat reptiles.
ETA: Bat-Eared Fox in the top 100! C'mon little guy, you can get there!
Tasmanian Devil and Wolverine... and more birds... in two packs? Hmm... how about:
::Temperate Pack::
- Wolverine (3)
- Saiga (19)
- Patagonia Mara (27)
- Little Blue Penguin (56)
::Islands Animal Pack::
- Tasmanian Devil (1)
- Tree Kangaroo (Goodfellow's 6; but I prefer Matschie's 49)
- North Island Brown Kiwi (10)
- Southern Rockhopper Penguin (53)
- Japanese Raccoon Dog (54)
- American Flamingo (131)
- Hawaiian Goose (188)

only the little blue penguin makes sense for this theme
saiga and mara are grassland and desert, wolverine is taiga and tundra
people on this forum mix up concepts of climate zones/latitudes and actual biomes
Not everything is biome based. Tropical pack was based on the Tropical Zone... a Temperate pack would be based on the Temperate Zone... it works perfectly, you're just misinterpreting the details.

not at all, every animal in the tropical pack was actually from the tropical biome, they all had the tropical tag
Have you seen how Frontier define their biomes?
Exactly... what standards are they even using?! What defines "Tropical" or "Temperate" anyways? As far as I can tell they're not real life biomes... they're just a mash of basic biome concepts to simplify things.
i dont see how sarcasm is going to help in this discussion
of course i have seen it and it is why i am making comments, criticising this approach
if you add more meanings to something that is already confusing enough, it makes things worse
we dont need tags getting more complex or losing their meanings entirely by including everything
actually they have a logic of their own, but devs sometimes make mistakes like in other sections of the game (like interspecies bonus inconsistencies)
we don't have to make them more complicated just bc we don't understand it or there are consistency mistakes
Yes, I'm sure there is... the question is what is that logic? Looking at what is tagged what, is seems reasonable to assume things like "Temperate" means Temperate Zone as much as it means woodlands. We also don't have to make them more restrictive just because we don't understand it or there are consistency mistakes.

temperate zone includes forests, deserts, steppe, alpine and everything else you can think of but not all of these are temperate biome tagged in the game
only deciduous forests/woodlands are, looking at animal and plant tags
excluding outliers or consistency mistakes of course
two wrongs don't make a right tho
if you build up on consistency mistakes it is going to make it even more confusing and inconsistent, instead of fixing them
(double post bc of edited comment)
This just brings up more questions than answers, like why did they call it Temperate (not a biome) if what they meant was Woodlands? Or Tropical if what they mean is Rainforests.
