Hi!

I've just uploaded today's new update featuring some cool critters. The build also contains a ton of extra items in addition to a handy entity highlighting tool which outlines all entities and shows their profession icon above them.

Entities should now appear on the map every few days whereas before you'd only get a few early on in the game. Keep in mind they will also leave after a certain amount of time if you don't tame them.

Speaking of taming, you can now tame every animal in the game and all entities can now fight. Want a Crab army? Sounds good to me. Want Rats to be your legion? Rad.

Here are some quick notes on the behaviours/benefits of the five new animals:
Dogs - Will seek out stealthed baddies in your settlement.
Sheep - Produce Wool daily.
Rats - If not tamed, will eat food and seeds in the settlement.
Snoots - Haven't given them anything special yet, but they will apply a poison once I add alchemy as a profession.
Gully - Like their real-life inspiration, they are just useless birds.
Cats - Cats will hunt down rats that have not been tamed.
