Indicator for when Beefalo is about to shake off saddle

[Beetrice]

It feels very hard to know your Beefalo's obedience level as is, and the shaking off is completely unprompted. Adding a Survivor callout about 10 seconds before the Beefalo shakes it off would be extremely nice.

just feed it some junk like twigs, grass, lightbulbs or petals a few times right after you get off, it won't shake it off in that case, imo getting a feel for riding time and how much you got to feed is the fun part of beef taming, if you're off beef for prolonged periods of time you can just feed steamed twigs to be safe

[Well-met]

No.

beefalos are way too good… this suggestion is not just a quality of life, but a big buff, because it would make having an untamed beefalo not risky at all, mostly while fighting.

theres a math formula for calculating

mount it and time how long it takes to be bucked off, then subtract 15 seconds and divide by 225.

or just get a client mod

It's dying from getting randomly tossed that kills me. I almost never use beefalo (except for travel) for this reason.

 

That one bad rng timing erasing all my work is never an acceptable risk.

Why I'll never play wolf gang. Lost multiple runs cause he needs to stop and play an animation mid combat.

As someone who has tamed beefalos, I like the idea of a warning when your beefalo is about to buck your saddle off. It’s more annoying than challenging as I usually used 2 saddles to domesticate a beefalo as I can’t always predict when it’ll shake off.

I think an agitated look on the beefalo when the beefalo crosses the point of bucking the saddle while riding or off it would work well as you’ll be rewarded for paying attention to your beefalo. The player warning works well as well.

I don't feel this is necessary, and you can use a mod on PC right? Being able to feed a beefalo while mounted has already significantly simplified taming.

Feed it, mount. Sit somewhere until you get bucked. You now know your limit in case you decide to go somewhere dangerous, otherwise don't go somewhere dangerous with a untamed beef if you're not experienced enough
