Do you know the story of the object-oriented flight simulator? They wanted to make some roos, so they just copied the behaviour pattern for civilian people in an uprising. The Aussies who used the sim knew that fleeing roos give them away and steered clear of them. So it wasn't until a few years later when a couple of yanks used the sim that they found that the roos shot anti-aircraft missiles!

I've definitely got the aussie animal bug, I can usually knock one out in a lunchtime at work.
I think Galahs would be good, they are one of my favourites and would add a splash of colour - something to fly around or perch in those gum trees.
I may also include a Wedge tail as I have a few good photos I took at Healesville recently.
(I will finish off the D50 at some point too)

various sheep & other farm animals are available at UKTS - no dogs yet though...
Looks like the poll is quite even at the moment, but birds seem to be in favour. I'll try and make the flying ones animated so they are noticable.

Let's see what wanders onto the tracks,
Rabbits, Cows,Sheep, emu, Camels, roos ( done)
Any of these would be ok.
Perhaps the Dingo, Possum......

The good type (flat)?
How about making them run away when an Xplorer comes close, because it's got the "Roo Alert" siren?

Rabbits and sheep are available there too.

I almost go my ROO.haz file working, but as soon as you use the horn, they bounced off tail first so I need to make a couple of adjustments.
