Overview

Genetic Animals completely replaces vanilla livestock with entities featuring millions of possible genetic variations. Every animal's appearance, size, and resource production are determined by a true-to-life genetics core rather than random chance. This mod introduces realistic models, dynamic animations (such as blinking and ear twitching), and complex behaviors like sleeping, grazing, and gender-based breeding.

Key features include: * True Genetics: Offspring inherit traits from parents based on dominant and recessive genes. * Realistic Models: Dynamic models that change size and shape based on genetic markers. * New Mechanics: Hunger, thirst, gestation periods, and gender-based breeding. * Expanded Equipment: Dyeable saddles, bridles, collars, and animal-specific inventories.
