Every time I see a request for rabbits, they assume we would need a new resource - fur. Why not just make the rabbits drop leather? The same as cows or deer? I personally would love to see a tiny "hutch" building (Discrepancy's Beehive with a remodeled front for example), that produces rabbit meat and has a small chance of producing a leather. It takes 10 - 20 rabbit furs to make a coat, so the hutch would produce much less leather than a cow. Making it a building would also mean you wouldn't have to animate any new animals. To me it's about variety and realism. Not necessarily about new chains.

I love this topic [img]<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/smile.png[/img]/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" title=":)" width="20" />  


What about a small "Farm" (think the animal pens but the size of the "Creamery" or "Bee Hive/Apiary" we have in game already.

Use a drop menu that works like other resource buildings, and choose which animal you want to "Farm" (the list is generated from what animals you have stock of already), and it pops out the selected items.

Or have it set to random (alas Apiary) and who knows what resources you end up with.




 




I have no idea how it would be achieved, but the art could be based on a small farm, with stationary beasts. [img]<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/smile.png[/img]/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" title=":)" width="20" />

I too believe that there is a place (and maybe even elevate that to a "need" rather than just a "want")  for fur in Banished. People in the period of the European colonization of the Americas were just as likely to be wearing clothes made of furs as they were to have clothes made from leather, probably more likely due to the more involved process to make leather.

To catch yabbies you'll need about three things: a yabby trap<span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial, verdana, geneva, helvetica, sans-serif;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);float:none;">, some string, and a meat bone. You can purchase traps online, or at most fishing supply stores, and everything else can be found at your local supermarket. Tie and the position the meat inside the trap, and use the string to throw the trap into the water. Once you've tied the string to a nearby branch it is time to wait.  </span>

There is an easier way of catching yabbies, but you'll have to hang around for it. Forgo the yabby traps, and instead just tie a piece of meat to some string. Submerge the meat underwater, and then wait for the yabbies to come biting. Pull out the meat and catch any yabbies in the net. It might not be as productive as using a yabby trap, but it is definitely still fun.
