As to the animals and the poll:

First, I voted the monthly option on growth rate. I think rolls should be done, but there should be a base amount each animal grows every month, modified by the rolls for stunted or accelerated growth.

Second, This is Dwarf Fortress we are remaking here. Spores. It just wouldn't feel right making the animals mate. This is not to say we shouldn't still need both genders in a relatively close area, but Spores is very DF.

Third, Finally I chose to vote speeding up the birthrate some. In my experience games like these don't last long enough for the base raw data to be used. If we get something rare, it could be a year or more real life time before we get a birth. At least with the current rate of posting and turns. I would probably suggest something like speeding up the breeding to weeks instead of months, but using the raw info as a starting point. This way, animals breed about 4 times as fast, and fits in with the weekly turn process a little better. HOWEVER: As I noted in the first question, I think rolls should only be made once every 4 turns, or monthly. If only to reduce strain on the GM. This would forcibly slow down any birthrate that gets sped up to less than a month and make it monthly.

Have him go Idle. If he doesn't show up for the next two or three turns Kill off his character.

Or just leave his character on auto mode as a GM npc. Frankly we need all the help we can get. XD

I will be adding Guilds later as the game gets going fully. Guilds will be under Player control and are filled with NPC Migrants who slot into the work spots that the Guild has, for example, Miner Guild could be run by one of the two current miners, who has 2 members in his guild, that would give him at the end of his roll, 3x the results. And so forth. General Idea here, not fully fleshed out...

Making an assumption here but i'd say since shoot&run dropped out you get his spot.

Sorry for the holdup, there are some things to do, such as fix the EXP gained from the first Month, someone may have leveled. So while I am doing that math, Eктωρ, can get his actions in...
