[Suggestion] Mounts should destroy small trees

11 votes

Small trees (like the ones that turn into sticks) are often getting in the way when running around on a mount. Considering these are big creatures, I think it would be reasonable for them to crush small trees rather than just run into them and stop you mid run.

As an alternative, the mounts could have the collision with small saplings turned off (same as for bushes).

Remove collision between animals and fallen trees to stop animals getting stuck until AI improvements can be added.

[Description]
Animal pathing is rather poor especially on dense maps such as olympus. When a storm hits and fallen trees are everywhere animals become almost completely unable to navigate any densely forested area.
This can make the game rather trivial in difficult areas by simply saturating it with fallen trees, breaking the AI and making most enemies harmless.
Removing animal-fallen tree collision would be a good temporary measure until something more permanent such as AI pathing improvements or the ability for animals to break fallen trees can be added.
