## New Features

- NPC hunting and baiting behavior

- NPCS now have three new stats

- NPCs are more likely to hunt the lower it gets

- Depletes over time

- Restored by eating other NPCs or players

- Fills passively to a certain point, then needs other NPCs or Players to fill further

- Filled by struggles and 'digest' effects in a sexual location

- NPCs may strip their clothes depending on how horny they are

- NPC will 'climax' when it fills, and resets it

- Rest

- NPCs are more likely to want to be prey the lower it gets

- Depletes over time

- Restored when an NPC is eaten or sitting in a loungeable
