Animals in WorldBox don't usually last long, with most species except for rats going extinct after civilizations take over the map. I think this is mostly because animals keep spreading out over the entire map, preventing them from reproducing as well as allowing them to be picked off one by one by hunting humans and such. In fact, if you spawn humans around a large map without the ability to form kingdoms, even they will eventually all die due to starvation. WorldBox is called just that, WORLDBox, and part of a world is the animals and ecosystems that live in it, not just countries and cities and stuff, and I wish a larger focus was put on preserving animals.

I think a good fix for this would be forcing animals to stay in close proximity to whatever biome they spawned in. This would allow them to stay close enough together so that sexual reproduction can take place, and stop weird stuff like finding ostriches in my world's equivalent to northern Canada or seeing bears living in an infernal wasteland. It would also give every ecosystem its own distinctive feel, with different animals being found in different locations. This also applies to animals spawned by the player, so if you want a species of, for example, werewolves which only live in the Cursed Forest, then they will stay there. This could be used to make certain regions of a map more "monster filled" than others. If a player wants a certain species to be able live anywhere, a new subspecies trait called "Universal Habitat" could be applied so that they aren't restricted.

Non-hostile animals such as sheep, cows, goats, alpacas, etc can be herded by shepherds, a job that citizens of a city can take on. The shepherd will leave their village and any friendly animals of the variety that I listed will begin to follow them, similar to how Skeletons follow Necromancers around. Shepherds will wander around their village, allowing the animals following them to graze. They will also defend their animals from hostile entities such as bears, wolves, and other creatures. If the village the shepherd is a part of is in need of meat, the shepherd will kill one of the animals who are following him and bring their meat back to their village.

Hopefully this helps keep animal species alive, cause all animals are often wiped out after civilizations start taking over the map. It would also help primarily carnivorous sapient species get consistent access to meat so they don't starve to death.

There are a lot of achievements in WorldBox. But I thought there are a lot of ideas that could be used but weren't put in, so here are some achievements I came up with I think would fit in the game.

Save The World - Use the Save Button to save a world to a save slot.

Let My People Go - Kill the firstborn son of a king with the Life Eraser.

Careful Whisper - Use the Smooth Jazz power 5 times.

Knight In Shining Armor - Possess an unedited creature and use it to kill a Dragon.

The Messiah - Possess a creature and get 12 other creatures to follow you

One to Rule Them All - Use the equipment editor to make an Eternal, Cursed, legendary ring, and kill the wearer by throwing them into a volcano.

Public Nuisance - Possess a citizen of a city and destroy the Town Hall of the city.

Spectator Sport - Spectate a creature from when it is 1 year old until it dies.

'Twas the Night Before Boxmas - Summon Robot Santa on an Elf city during the ages of Dark, Moon, or Despair

Happy New Year! - Detonate fireworks in the first month of a year, Crabuary.

Valiant Rulers is a Culture trait which automatically makes the king of a kingdom the general of his capital city's army. This would make it so when war is declared, the king leaves his city and commands his soldiers directly from the frontlines. This could apply to village leaders too, although if too many of the king's clan die then it could lead to instability in his kingdom.

This trait would be pretty nice for worldbuilding and cinematic wars, and if two kingdoms which both have the trait go to war, we could have epic king vs. king showdowns.

Some creatures who would have this trait by default could be Orcs, Demons, Grranths, Buffolons, Armorocs, Reptiloids, and of course, Navy Seals.

I think this trait is simple and easy to implement, but could make for some really cool moments in your world's history. What do you think?

Kings (and maybe village leaders) will be able to receive titles depending on notable actions they've done or the status of their kingdom/village during their reign.

For example, if a kingdom took over a great amount of villages from another while winning a war, the king of that kingdom will gain the title "- The Conquerer" or "- The Great" at the end of their name. If a kingdom had a lot of starving people during a king's reign, they might have "- The Terrible" at the end of their name. And if a king acquired a high number of kills, they might receive the title "- The Bloody".

There can be loads more, based on stuff like a king's different stats such as intelligence, diplomacy, stewardship, warfare, etc, as well as notable traits they have. Something like this could help with worldbuilding and give kingdoms more history.
