Description (required)
When three animals are leashed together in a closed triangle formation, all of them become completely frozen and unresponsive.
Steps to reproduce:
Spawn three animals (e.g., cows): Animal A, Animal B, and Animal C.
Use leads to connect them like this:
Leash Animal A to Animal B
Leash Animal B to Animal C
Leash Animal C to Animal A
Once the loop is complete, all three animals stop moving entirely.
❌ What happens:
The animals are frozen in place.
They do not respond to being pushed, attacked
The bug is 100% reproducible.
✅ What should happen:
The animals should still move and behave normally even when leashed in a triangle.
💡 Possible Cause:
The closed loop might be causing a circular leash dependency that interferes with their movement/pathfinding AI.
