1.0.5
Fixed graphics by reverting to 1.0.3

Added NO_GENDER to golden geese to make their inability to reproduce more explicit

1.0.4
Attempted to follow advice on a better way to do graphics - it didn't work (CTD)

Update: 31 Dec, 2022 @ 6:44pm

1.0.3
Removed FEMALE from golden geese to prevent them from giving live birth. Change should take effect only in newly spawned geese though, so existing forts may want to flush out older golden geese.

Fixed child graphics for all geese (I had broken them previously). Change should occur immediately with any save.

1.0.2
Made small changes to prevent errors from appearing in the log (the geese no longer technically have gold feathers, but they never dropped those anyway and it was just causing some small errors on load).

1.0.1
Increased golden goose value to 10k dwarfbucks.
Reduced spawn chance to 1 in 1001 hatchlings.
Increased value multiplier for feathers by 3 (they are also gold and may be obtainable from butchering or combat sometimes)
Changing the value of the gold bars without making them unpleasant to work with was not possible (at least I couldn't find a way), but they are still plenty valuable in a world with sparse resources.

Updated graphics to actually function with the normal geese sprites.
^This change overrides the vanilla graphics, and I can't find a way to run the graphics object twice without completely overriding the first one, so its basically just the golden geese plus the vanilla geese graphics copied to my graphics object. Will only cause issues with mods that completely change the locations of creatures within "graphics_creatures_domestic.txt" or which have new goose graphics. The only issues should be missing or incorrect textures though - no crashes.

1.0.0
Initial upload
Adds Golden Goose caste to geese with creature variations.
Golden Goose caste appears rarely (~1 in 21 hatched eggs)
Golden Geese have gold feathers (both the material and color) and lay 1 gold bars at a nestbox at the normal egg-laying interval (seasonally).
Graphics for golden geese (just recolored normal geese)

Yes this is a kinda dumb mod. Yes the versioning scheme is way more ambitious than it needs to be.

Save compatible
Compatible will all other mods
Functional with mods that change "creature_domestic.txt" (Basically any mod that changes creature you can embark with in vanilla) as long as this mod is loaded after it and it doesn't completely alter/delete geese.
