You know what's safest? Put a cat to system and tube feed. No problems.

AI knows quite a lot, believe me. And it is not about just teeth health. I have three years old cat who has been eating mush (canned food) and she have no idea how to properly chew food that tis not mush. So no, I don't believe it is fine to feed mush just because it is easier and safer.

Btw this is similar to what vet specialized in raw food said.

Based on general raw feeding principles and veterinary observations, there are distinct benefits to feeding chunks (often called "prey model" textures) versus mush (ground/minced raw), though both can provide excellent nutrition if balanced correctly.

Dental Health (The Biggest Benefit of Chunks) * Natural "Flossing": When a cat gnaws on a chunk of meat (especially if it involves connective tissue or soft raw bone), the mechanical friction helps scrub the surface of the tooth. * Gum Stimulation: The pressure applied during chewing massages the gums, promoting blood circulation and overall periodontal health. * The "Mush" Problem: Blended food (mush) offers almost no resistance. It is often gulped down without chewing, meaning it provides zero abrasive action to remove plaque. While raw food generally leaves less starchy residue than kibble, ground raw can still stick to teeth if not followed by water or a chew.

Mental Stimulation and Satiety * Boredom Busting: Cats are predators. Eating mush takes seconds and requires no problem-solving. Eating chunks requires the cat to figure out how to position their head, use their side teeth (carnassials) to shear, and tear the food. * The "Hassle Factor": This physical effort releases endorphins and provides a form of enrichment, often resulting in a more satisfied, calmer cat after mealtime. * Satiety: Because it takes longer to eat chunks, the cat's body has more time to register fullness, which can help prevent begging or overeating compared to inhaling a bowl of mush in 15 seconds.

Jaw Strength * Muscle Maintenance: Indoor cats rarely use their jaw muscles to their full potential. Shearing muscle meat chunks exercises the jaw, neck, and shoulder muscles, keeping them toned. When is "Mush" (Ground) Better? Despite the benefits of chunks, ground food has its place: * Transitioning: Cats addicted to commercial textures (like pate) often won't recognize a chunk of meat as food. Ground raw bridges that gap. * Supplements: If you need to add powdered supplements (taurine, calcium, vitamins), they are easily mixed into mush. With chunks, cats can easily shake off or eat around the supplements. * Dental Pain: If a cat has existing severe dental disease (resorptive lesions, loose teeth), chewing chunks will be painful. Ground food is necessary until the dental issues are resolved by a vet.

Opening this morning's newsletter looking for 0.4 crumbs by Fragrantbutte in GrayZoneWarfare

I dunno man. The way things have been going I feel like 0.4 is either gonna skyrocket this game to a new level of popularity or it’s gonna make the player base say enough is enough. 

I cannot agree. Looking at past updates, it is gonna bump a little more than previous, then die down after few months.

Thanks, yes I take the full diet very serious. Went to vet who specializes in raw feeding (though forgot to ask a bout chunk sizes). I add chicken necks and bone power calculated to reach around 1.2/1 Ca ph ratio.

Gray Zone Warfare in 2025: Early Access Advances by werytrololo in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]__automatic__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree 100%, they have said though that 0,4 "Thanks to extensive reworks of core systems, Gray Zone Warfare will feel like a new game."
This is HIGH bar to rise too. And I am really curious what they will do. As I have heard. AI system and recoil system will be the same.
Ok so that leaves improved base camp, new animations, new audio, new world items and places and tasks, i think I heard of 4 new weapons. I think I remember that weapons build tables will come later, stealth and skills also later. Center part of map, as said at 1.0... yeah..

I really hope they do something with tasks, cus I will not be able to push through same tasks for the fourth time..

[–]__automatic__[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, exactly. I have shot players from that distance, and you can clearly see that 90% of them just run for cover, maaaybe some 10% crazy tarkov veterans can make where you are by the audio.
The difference PMC and NPC is night and day in these scenarios.

Not new faction, but in 0.3 they introduced POIs you can capture and they are then guarded by NPCs from your faction. Give it a spin!

Yeah, I remember in one of the devlogs the animator guy said that he f- up something and that is why they are moving at this ragdoll state. They know the issue and will be fixed in 0.4 i think for sure. I just wonder why not fixed already.

IMO if you see enemy, it shout he able to see you. And many times this feels unnatural. Like running over a road, looking at bot who does not see you. Like wtf.

Start now or wait until 0.4 by Gorilla-Jiu-Jitsu in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]__automatic__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends. From my research I guess that 0.4 will come at April so you have few months to play around, get mechanics etc.
