Wetness and Body Heat are now visible in your stats too. You get wet from rain or getting in water, and you must dry yourself out or you can freeze in cold climates. You must also wear lighter clothing in deserts and heavier clothing in cold areas.
The cassowary, barracuda, and beluga whale were all added as well. The cassowary is a massive bird with a deadly kick. The barracuda is a nocturnal vicious fish that will swim long distances to find you. And for those of you who have been following my blog, you have seen the new beluga whale and whale behavior.
But here are the cassowaries and barracudas:
Leather is now acquired from wolves, and from bears, you get a new item: Fur. It can be made into clothing/armor.
The thing I'm most excited about is Pumpkin Farming. I've been waiting for soooo long, hoping it would come! There are multiple stages in the Pumpkins growth, and it seems to be fairly realistic. As you can see in the picture below, they even appear to be growing in a vine-like structure:
What does everyone think about 1.26?
I'll be posting again soon on the new animal aggression feature. I'll be sure to add some pictures too :)
