Thank you for the nice words. It is a really nice idea that V2 has with dialog and interactions and a story mode. I am not sure I am up to the task. But it would be nice to see it done. Maybe when I get a little more experience under my belt I can give it a try. :)
Take care,
Teal

i don't mean completely removing male and female animals, i just simply removing the gender differences from some of the animals, where it makes sense, since some animals in the kenshi landscape would make no sense to be different genderwise, and sexual demorphism normally happens in animals that have sexual selection, and social animals, and eusosocial animals, and the solitary animals in kenshi, would have zero chance to have sexual selection, since the environment is so brutal, that animals would simply co-exist for abit, create offspring, and then leave one another alone. however, with social animals, it does make sense, as the biggest and strongest would win fights, and establish dominance over the other members.

:) Nice thought, but seeing baby beakthings is kinda cute. And if there weren't any moms and dads, then where did the baby's come from? I know... it's only a game. But I see your point. Not everyone is going to want male and female animals, So, I guess that is okay. Hope you enjoy the rest of the mod though.
Take care,

i feel like some animals in kenshi would have less sexual dimorphism, beak things would most likely have almost no gender differences, since they are mostly solitary, as-well as gorrilos, skin spiders, and land-bats. the animals that travel in groups, such as garru, Crabs, bone-dogs goats, and blood spiders, would be more likely to have more sexual dimorphism.

Just a quick note on this one. If you load it up and play it and then unload it, The animals in the game are going to glitch. Because they have different names than the vanilla animals do. So, it you unload the mod, you might want to donate the save file to posterity just because all the animals will be walking around stiff legged, because the animations are looking for animal... instead of animal male and animal female. :)
Anyway, just wanted you to know, because I unloaded mine and went back to play and the animals were looking funny. :)

Take care and have a good night,
Teal
