Shepherd

Design Concept

Medium Game, Medium Cost Worker – Automates the shearing of Sheep for wool.

Chest Recipe

All wood with a Wool Block in the middle.

Operation

The Shepherd will keep a number of sheep and will shear them to collect their wool. If he does not have enough sheep for his level in his pen, he will breed them until the correct number of sheep is obtained.

The Shepherd requires some shears to enable him to shear the sheep

When created the Shepherd will come with 2 sheep (spawned as part of building the Level 1 building).

When he has shears available he will try and shear the sheep whenever they grow back their wool.

The number of sheep he will maintain is level + 1 (2 at level 1, 4 at level 3 etc.) Making 5 sheep at level 4

If the player places additional sheep in the pen, he will kill them (and collect the drops) until the correct number is obtained.

'Specialisation Bonus '

Using the future Ranch Colony Specialism will increase the number of Sheep the Shepherd will keep by +2 (i.e. 4 at Level 1, 7 at level 4 etc.)

Tool Durability Loss is reduced by 25% (Tools last 25% longer)

'Specialisation Penalty '

Using any other specialisation in his colony will delay by 20 seconds his attempt to shear a sheep. (i.e. when he sees a sheep ready to shear he will wait 20 seconds before doing so.)''' '''
