While these are similar, it would be interesting if they were quite rare, so you might get only one or two animals civs in each world. I don't know if that's possible to change. That way it would matter less if they are similar, if they are mixed in with other modded civs as a fun surprise.

Could you add Raccoons?

Same problems as what Sirgir mentioned.

Neat mod. You really need to work on differentiating them. Do some research on the animals they're based on to come up with some neat stuff. At the very least they should eat different foods. Maybe age at different rates, etc.

Thanks @Sirgir, i will look into elephant and grizzly man problems.
MEANDERER would have been my first guess as well.

@Frej
yes they all have the same ethics, but you are right maybe i'll turn that value to something more grey shaded

Genuinely don't know why it's only happening to a select few animal people civs. Rhino men for example are able to play just fine, but Elephants and Grizzlies just completely stop doing anything the moment they are told to haul and just hold onto the item and have "No Job"

Grizzly bear men also seem to be affected by the hauling bug as well...

Testing a bit further, it seems to be happening with just the elephant people I think. Tried out saltwater crocodiles and they can haul just fine and play normally.

Another issue is when, at least when playing Elephant men (I haven't tested the other animal people), is that they completely hang up when attempting to haul things to a stockpile. They'll just usually wander around the wagon and hold onto the item.

A good chunk of species have the [MEANDERER] token (inherited from their animal), making it borderline unplayable for those animal people. Not sure if there's a way to exclude the token.

I'm currently just commenting out the token for the animal person during my playthrough- but I wonder if there's a way you can patch that specific token out.

do the carnivores also not like killing animals?
