"'Ey, Rancher! So, good news, that 'new diet' thing you suggested actually worked. Bad news: the other cows are just pudge now. I'm makin' way more milk, though~..."

You ever get struck by an idea, a light, goofy little idea, and before you realize it that idea has spun into something way, way beyond what it initially was? Yeah? Well that's exactly what happened here. What was initially supposed to be just a simple ranching bot inspired by the Hucow Ranching Tycoon made by @weirdoos ended up becoming what's pretty much a mini game.

I am slightly, slightly proud of this one, because we've got:

• A list of all monster species, each with a specific quirk that impacts ranching.

• Building progression through the Ranch, complete with upgrades for all buildings.

• A list of Traits that are specific to each monster.

• Palworld-esque Work Suitabilities

• .

• More, kinda?

I dunno, I'm just happy I managed to actually bite the bullet and make this a complete little package. I just hope you folks vibe with it, 'cause I've been volunteered for an extended break thanks to upcoming exams. Have fun y'all.

The only intro for now is simple, with that old cliché of you inheriting a venerable house, and there are no plans for Monster!POV since the entire bot is built around {{user}} as a Rancher. Technically, you can still have monstrous personas that are Ranchers, but you can't, y'know, be a monster that gets milked in a ranch by a Rancher. Does that make sense?

Pro Rancher Hint: If you ever find yourself confused about anything, try checking the Typhon Rancher's Codex. Also, the bot is supposed to display a monster's info whenever you encounter them for the first time, so if it doesn't, it'd be best to re-roll until it does 👍.

Update 1: "GUI" Upgrades - Just fixed a few wording mistakes and added some rules that should make the gameplay changes more responsive. Also updated the "day status" messages, so they should explain a bit more to new players.
