I heard the problem concern the animals too but I didn't investigate it.
I spend a lot of time to try to make a fix my side but it seems to be an endless job as more and more mods use these kind of feature, some are private, some will come the future...
At this point I feel that my mod could become deprecated while I still want to maintain (and develope) it.
Here is a link to my main mod affected by this bug: [[ https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2051775667&tscn=1676577890 | PvZmoD Customisable Zombies ]]
Of course not the best mod ever made but you'll see not a tiny, useless, unpopular mod. Really think it worth keep it alive.
