No Penned Animals

Description
THIS MOD IS 1.3 LEGACY. Go here for the 1.4 version.

Makes all animals use the Chad area designations, rather than the Virgin pen system.

Memes aside, this is the sledgehammer solution to the pen system's conflict with the Locks mod, where your handler tries to put an animal in a pen, but they don't actually get the animal in said pen before going "Eh, good enough", leave the animal, then immediately try to lead them into the pen again, repeat ad infinitum. Much easier to just write up a quick patch operation.

Simply put:

In vanilla 1.2, all animals would be confined to the area they were designated to, with no need to build fences or anything.

In vanilla 1.3, some animals were made unable to be assigned to an area, and must be kept in a pen with a physical fence.

This mod reverts behavior of every animal to how it was in 1.2, but pen markers and fences still exist.

Anyone needing an update for this in 1.5 see https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/?id=3051499530

Since the previous link there hasn't been updated to 1.5 and they also disabled comments.

Hi, any plans for a 1.4 update?

Any idea if this is compatible or needed if you use Train All Animals?

Yeah this is a substitute for the pen system because it is annoying lol

it seems we are all here because of "Giddy Up". Sometimes I forget this is a mod and not in game features.
even without it, the pen system is a pain if you want to move your cattle into safety because of weather condition.

Thanks for the response.
I use giddy up and appart from riders constantly riding through forbidden/no riding zone indoor areas the mod works so far/haven´t noticed the mentioned problems thus far.
However pawns forgetting pen animals outside the pen is happening and that alone I find pretty annoying.
