More than a bug report, this is a real question: is that a bug, which might eventually get fixed and that we shouldn't rely on, or is that an intended behavior that's there to stay? (or an unintended behavior, or should I say "happy little accident" that's there to stay regardless).
That's an important question for the community (several people have spent quite a lot of time around that behavior already), because it would let us know if we can use that in survival with reasonable expectation it won't break in a future update (like we do with submerged vents/electrolyzers).
The behavior in question is that flopping pacus aren't overcrowded, despite being in a small room where they should.
This allows intermittently making them non-flopping so they can eat and lay eggs, and let them flop the rest of the time, to enable very small Pacus ranches, compared to the size it should take to keep them happy, at the cost of a lower eggs output per Pacu (about half, which is still very significant compared to the space savings).
Here is the link to the original discovery of the behavior
Here is a more recent build that shows a smaller build
And here is a state-of-the-art build, courtesy of @ghkbrew:
Here is a quick save file with the build. It's barely initialized, but it will grow and is configured for 10 breeders as long as you continue providing food.
- Get several fed pacus in the same cell
- Ensure they are flopping (not enough water)
- Check their status: they are not overcrowded, and their
