So I modded some elk tracks and noticed the lack of dedicated calf graphic, which lead me to think the calves' graphic in game is actually just resized adult one.

And I immediately though that it would be relatively simple to have this:

  • in late spring and summer you'd meet the tiny calves we see now
  • in autumn and winter (winter fur time) they'd be say, about 50%, of the adult

Of course the meat yield and skin sizes would vary accordingly.

Btw: the antler graphics don't fit on calves at all - maybe have a antlerless version of adult reindeer too during the period they drop them and when they are still growing and unusable as material (spring-summer for doe, december-spring-summer for bull: for instance, irl there's some variation)

Anyway, this is not urgent. Only wrote it down because of the more urgent skin size suggestion touched this topic: https://www.unrealworld.fi/forums/index.php?topic=6105.0

This all is featured already. The calves graphic icon grows as they grow. Their skin and meat yield is based on their size.
