Animal hitboxes seem really funky

[dire umbra]

I'm not sure if this is a bug and potentially related to the beta version I'm playing atm, but the hitboxes for the animals seems really off atm. I especially have difficulty petting my chickens, since the hitbox to actually pet them is like well above not just the chicken, but the bubble above the chicken.

I just wanted to ask I guess if this is how it's been in the basegame too? I genuinely can't remember, since it's been a long while since I've played basegame, and I'm pretty sure I had autopetters on my basegame save anyway.

The pictures attached have examples of where my cursor needs to be to pet my chicken, Fritter.

if you're playing beta this should go in #1240103714652422204

I just wasn't sure if it was a (new) bug honestly, so I thought to put it here first to ask if it's a known issue with the basegame before tossing it over there

[fervent pine]

yeah but the beta 1-0 is bugs that may have existed before 1.1 beta. That's why there's two channels. I'd read through the pinned posts and you'll get more information there

I'm not reporting it as a bug though, I'm asking if it IS a bug, so I put it in as a question. I don't know if it's intentional that the hitbox for petting is more on the heart bubble than the animal itself. I'm not reporting this as a bug, I am asking if this even is one

[dire umbra]

If this is one, I'll absolutely file a proper bug report regarding, I just don't want to throw out a bug report if this is just how the petting is and I forgot

Even so, everything beta should be in the beta channels and not the general ones.

[dire umbra]

Fair point, though I don't see a channel for asking questions in the beta section, and if anyone could just tell me "yes this is how it is in the base game", or "no this isn't how it is in the base game" that would be that.

Guess I'll just toss this in bugs though, since yall seem to be implying this is a bug.

Ty for the link to this. And sorry for being a bit difficult; I genuinely just wasn't sure if this was a bug with how long it's been since I've played the base game.

Has anyone run into the new brown fossils? Lab and Blacksmith both say I have nothing to process, but I have 10 fossils of a dark brown color. Also, I got them out of a chest in the Savannah caravan. While opening the chest and showing off the treasure enemies could freely move and beat me down :(.
