DF2014 Talk:Grazer
Much of the info on this page is obsolete because the grazing calculations were significantly changed in the 40.13 release. The description of the change was: "Reworked grazing formula, used fractional exponent to scale properly according to size."
In d_init.txt this was added:
Set this number to scale how often grazing animals need to eat. Larger numbers mean less food is necessary. Metabolism is always set according to the 3/4ths power of size.
[GRAZE_COEFFICIENT:100]
Further research is needed to determine what the pasture size needed for a given animal size.

- Toady posted the STANDARD_GRAZER formula in the FotF thread. It is 20000*G*(max size)^(-3/4), where G is the graze coefficient, and max size is the internal body size, so raw body size divided by 10. Knight Otu (talk) 18:18, 25 September 2014 (UTC)
