[Suggestion] Improve creature AI
currently the predators mostly have in incredibly basic, very stupid AI. all enemy behavior is basically aggro and then relentlessly run at and attack until dead or too far away. it would be great if the behavior of animals was more varied, like a bear seeing you and trying to intimidate you by standing up or slowly walking towards you instead of just charging on sight, or wolves that will keep their distance if they’re alone but will surround you in a pack and start attacking, maybe even running away if you kill enough of the pack. jaguars are hunters, but instead of using stealth and surprise attacks they act the same as basically every other animal in the game. different animals should require a different approach to them, which would make it more rewarding for the player to figure out how to best fight against the different animals and get better at the game, not just spam arrows and stabs

synI agree. And if they can't reach you for whatever reason, some should back away and wait, or give up or for a bear keep attacking maybe. They tend to just bug out on a rock when you stand on it and let you kill them. It would also be neat to see predators attacking prey in the wild, like wolves attacking deer or rabbits, and parents defending their young. I know this is in a community made addon already, but it should be a part of the base game and included with the AI overhaul.

Kiwicast MergedIf your player has died from a animal.. make the animals move away not staying there makes it impossible to respawn without being killed if you have nothing. Pretty pointless if people cannot respawn safely

Titled FishThis needs more upvotes. Would definitely add a new dynamic and enjoyment to the game.
