Summary0004625: Eagle Spawns A Little Excessive
DescriptionAfter reading http://www.arcengames.com/mantisbt/view.php?id=4622#c15861 for a separate issue, the Eagle spawns in forests right now seem rather excessive. Not sure if it's from seeding too many nests or from the spawn rate from the nests, but it's not uncommon to see 25+ eagles on screen at once.

Well, how big is your screen? At any rate, given that they don't chase you at all until about level 25, these numbers of eagles seem about right to me. At any rate, their volume of seeding is not an accident; given that they're just a dodging game, you really have to have some volume for that to really even matter.

Running 1920*1080 so that is a fairly large area to count them in. Will put this down to being used to bat spawn rates (trivial numbers really) and this is just heading towards the other end fo the spectrum :)

I gotcha -- yeah, I'm running that resolution, too. I'd not counted how many were onscreen at once, but I'm not super surprised. I think that some variance in volumes can be a really good thing.

Sounds like some areas need more bats!

(Cue Fear & Loathing quote.)

I do indeed hope to have some bat-plentiful areas. And indeed we used to, but people complained because of the frequency of that. But that will make a return, someday! Mwahahahaha. ;)
