Changes: Taming

Revision as of 12:57, 23 September 2015

Taming is the action used to tame domestic animals and was introduced with patch 0.2.7.1. Once tamed, they can be put into a Barn, or a Small or Large Stable.

How to

Taming Methods:

If you approach slowly until you can just use the tame ("E") ability you can frequently tame an animal without it running. Try taking small steps, pressing "E" while targeting the animal.
Run after it, if you are fast enough, you will be able to catch up to it and fast-right-click
Run after it until it becomes tired, then it will stop to rest for a short period of time, then you can right-click it
Run after the animal and engage it in combat. After a certain amount of damage (depending on the animal), the animal will try to walk away slowly, allowing you to tame it much faster.

After having clicked the Tame action a window will appear, here you must select a food item in your inventory to tame the animal with. The following food items are usable:

A taming attempt usually takes a few tries. Each attempt removes one entity of the selected bait from the players inventory.

A successful taming attempt will add one (domestic version) of the animal as a "deed" in your inventory. You can place small animals into a Barn and big animals into a Small- or Large Stable.

Notes

Not all animals are tamable. Currently the only ones which can be tamed are: cows, horses, pigs, and sheep.

To get domestic chickens and hares one can use a snare.

For some reason, domestic animals won't appear when using the "Track peaceful animal" ability or set off animal traps. Maybe this is intentional, as for patch 0.2.7.1 it's not implemented.

Currently unable to drop a tamed cow from a players inventory. So do not tame a cow, until you have a stable available.
SOLVED - To remove a tamed cow from player inventory without a Stable, build a monument or if one is already built open up the "Sacrifice" window and put the tamed cow in there. - Source: BSG Proliphic

Tips & Exploits

Want tracking to be easier, why not make the tracks easier to spot. Exchange file horse_footprint.png in "\Life is Feudal Your Own\art\2D\Terrain\Footsteps" (file provided or change the image yourself) this will make tracks appear red. File:horse_footprint.png
