This is just something I noticed when I bought the feed all play all tool from the Oasis. I love the play all feature so that was definitely worth something but the feed all feature to me was...not even a little bit.

I hunt as much as I can on a daily basis, which usually causes a bit of a spillover. I hunt almost religiously so that I can have enough food for my lions, but here's the thing about that...I have to feed my expiring food first.

The Play All Feed All tool feeds your lions based on the type of carcass, and that's not necessarily a bad thing but to those of us who have food expiring that's a variety of carcasses, it's a waste to feed up all of one kind of carcass when we have stuff that we have to use now.

So my suggestion is kind of twofold.

1) It would be extremely helpful to have the Feed All tool feed the expiring food first. If there are others who don't like this maybe it's just as simple as adding an "Expiring Food" option to the list instead of cutting out the breakdown of the different carcasses in your hoard.

2) Barring that, maybe it'd even be beneficial to split the two and - for those who only want one or the other - offer Feed All for 3gb and Play All for 3 gb with Feed All Play All staying at the 5gb so it's actually a bit cheaper for those people who like it as it is.



This suggestion has 62 supports and 1 NO support.

Would love to have the option to only buy the play all tool ^^
The feed all part is very inefficient right now, in terms of overfeeding your lions on large carcasses, not getting rid of food closer to expiry, and not showing how many carcasses or uses of a food type you have. You have to go to your hoard to check all that anyway, the normal bulk-feeding option for stacks gets rid of the food closest to expiry first, and the individual items suggest the hungriest lions first (the feed all tool seems to randomly dish out carcass uses?). All in all, it's not worth it unless you're really pressed for time or have a slow internet connection in my opinion, but I still like the idea of being able to play all and not worry about personalities conflicting.

I fully agree. I was super disappointed when I bought it that instead of giving the option to feed expiring food it listed the carcasses. And if you feed it, it feeds all of those carcasses. I don't want it to feed all of that carcass, I want it to feed what I need it to feed...which is the expiring stuff.

With my pride growing larger, I definitely appreciate the Play all tool, because it helps me play with all of them rather than spending an hour or more playing with each one and then feeding each one, but at the moment Feed all is too broken to be worth it for me.
