Format
Each entry in the data contains a key and a value, and each value contains many fields.
Key
An animal's type must be a key that exists in the data. Each key in the data must be unique.
Value
All entries share the same value format, which cannot be re-ordered. Each field is explained below.
| index | syntax | description |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | <days to produce>
|
Number of days for the animal to produce. This is affected by friendship and happiness, and Sheep are affected by the Shepherd profession. |
| 1 | <age when mature>
|
Number of days until mature. |
| 2 | <default produce index>
|
The object ID for the default produce item (e.g., 184 is Milk). |
| 3 | <deluxe produce index>
|
The object ID for the deluxe produce item (e.g., 186 is Large Milk). |
| 4 | <sound>
|
The sound clip the animal uses (see soundbank IDs). |
| 5-12 | <bounding boxes>
|
Unused data. The front & back (5-8) and sideways (9-12) bounding boxes, in the form of x/y/width/height. Can be all zeroes. |
| 13 | <harvest type>
|
How the animal produces items. The possible values are 0 (lay like Chickens), 1 (grab with a tool), and 2 (unused - seen only on the Hog and sets name to "It"). Pigs have a <harvest type> of 1 and a <harvest tool> of null, but their Truffle finding capability is limited to animals that have a type that contains "Pig".
|
| 14 | <change texture when item ready>
|
Whether the animal should use a secondary texture when you can harvest an item. Can be true or false. Must have a Sheared texture loaded such as Animals/ShearedSheep.xnb. |
| 15 | <building type>
|
The building in which the animal can live. This must be a blueprint type, like Coop or Barn. |
| 16-19 | <sprite size>
|
The front & back sprite (16-17) and sideways (18-19) sprite width/height in pixels. Coop animals such as Chickens are 16/16 and Barn animals such as Cows are 32/32. |
| 20 | <fullness drain>
|
The daily reduction in the animal's fullness value. |
| 21 | <happiness drain>
|
The daily reduction in the animal's happiness value. |
| 22 | <harvest tool>
|
Which tool is needed to harvest produce from animal with a <harvest type> of 1. This can be null (no tool) or any tool such as Milk Pail or Shears.
|
| 23 | <meat index>
|
Unused data. The object ID for the meat item when butchered. May be used by mods like Animal Husbandry. |
| 24 | <sell price>
|
Affects the price when you sell an animal. This has no effect on the price of animals in Marnie's Ranch, which is set in the game code. |
| 25 | <display type>
|
The translated animal name. Only used when not playing in English; English players will see the <type> value.
|
| 26 | <display building>
|
The translated building name. Only used when not playing in English; English players will see the <building type> value.
