2. 🐔 Catching Chickens & Understanding the Stress System
· To get chickens, you need to catch them in the wild.
· Carrying a chicken increases its stress level, which decreases when you stop moving.
· If the stress level reaches 100%, special events may occur, such as dropping the chicken or attracting zombies.
· You can adjust or disable chicken stress events in the sandbox settings.
· Taming wild chickens by placing them in the coop makes them domesticated. Domesticated chickens do not experience stress when moved. (The stress gauge may still be displayed due to a current bug)
