Respawns

deseiz

Respawning edible fish would be much apreciated and not to mention very natural. Spent a few weeks in one game in same spot, build a base next a creepvine biome. Every edible fish got wiped out by stalkers, those annoying armfetish freaks and of course, me.
if there already is such a mechanic then it could use some tweaking, its really not noticeable.
I know theres such a thing of overfishing and stuff going extinct, but its unlikely one added creature (the player) could be the cause of making several species on the bottom of the foodchain to go extinct.
The huge aquarium has babyfish yet out in the wild theres none. theres just the set fish population and thats it.

Several of us have already spent a great deal of time exploring the workings of the ecosystem and discussing the need for fish spawning of some type. As it stands right now, there is no respawning, but hopefully after the discussion we had, we impressed upon the devs enough the idea that they need to include at least a simple spawning system to prevent that dead-zone effect.

I was just playing the experimental build and I came across a tiny spadefish out in the wild. They must be working on this right now.

There are a lot of mentions of eggs of various types in the checkins right now, even for creatures you can't eat like the gasopod, so maybe this will be a component as well.
