Animal.CanAttack Method

AnimalCanAttack Method

Used to determine if your creature can attack another creature. This will return true all the time for a Carnivore since they can always attack.

For Herbivores this will return true if they are hungry enough to be aggressive. Herbivores may also attack a creature in the upcoming round if that creature attacked them in the previous round. The best place to attack a creature that is attacking you is to handle the Attacked event.
