Common livestock taming

Rope taming has its own chances and failure bonus. Companion whistle taming and Befriend use separate rules.

Reference
ModeAdventure rope taming. The visible Tame action is not offered in Wilds.
Base chance60%
Earlier failuresEach earlier failed attempt on this same animal adds 7 percentage points, up to 50 extra points. The roll is capped at 100%.
Optional baitThe rope attempt does not automatically offer bait at this rarity.
First attempt with baitNo automatic bait at this rarity.
Maximum without bait100%
Maximum with baitNo automatic bait at this rarity.
Rope and reachStand alongside the animal, including diagonals, right-click it and choose Tame. Each attempt spends one unprotected Taming Rope from your pack. Simply walking into it does not throw the rope.
Failed attemptThe animal flees, keeps its failure bonus and refuses another rope attempt for 8 turns. Wait and approach it again.
Successful attemptBecomes owned livestock in Follow mode. Starts at full species health with 30 happiness, unfed. Milk quality is calculated from happiness, feed and species bonuses as the world updates. Milk, wool, silk and egg timers are set from its species. A released animal keeps its proper name and look when caught again.
ScopeThis rule does not make every livestock species a normal wild encounter. Some are acquired by Befriend or other routes. Already owned livestock and peaceful NPCs are not rope targets.
