@Keenan Just pure curiosity dose Spawncount describe a second cap or to the wight ratio in the spawn attampt for you guys (I would interpret it as second cap)? I think WU did not have a direct count/creature just a general count so I was wondering if ther was a change in this regard since then.

Also first would mean its more efficient to just kill Donkys for more horsess, second would mean still every animal that is not a horse for more horses. So its maybe a usfull information to get anyway.

Not absolutely sure, but I believe they have two counts:  (1) aggro creature count and (2) non-aggro creature count (which would include donkeys and horses).  Two seperate limits, one for each.

Does this mean Horses are more likely to spawn?

haha, good one

doubtful, if other rebalance, gap will fill by random spawns of the non-aggressive type most likely, expect more pigs/dogs/etc 

cows.. for the tutorial/journal

This was how it worked in WU. But it looks like WO had a overhaul to creature spawning since then (following a few patch notes and observations). So the question remain is this a shift in wight distribution for spawns or the max number of specific animal type.

Donkeys:

Two donkeys walked out of frame as I was trying to get a screenshot and there's even one inside the darn guard tower.

 

To be clear, this isn't a dig at our fine development team - I just love that Wurm always seems to have a mind of its own about these things.  :)

Adjusted spawn rate, they didn't just pluck existing ones away.

What, guards don't get donkeys of their own?  

 

Now that would be terrific, hitch a mount to a tower to create mounted guards.

Damit!  I was using the abundance of Donkeys to train my newb fighting skills and gather hide.  😜  On a serious note, I did wonder what was up with all the donkeys, so much so that my during my ventures across the west bay of Melody in my rowboat, I was often accompanied by rogue, swimming donkeys, lol.  🤨  Thanks for the fix!  Now for some luck in a horse that is not grey for myself.  :D
