:backhand_index_pointing_down: DESCRIBE THE ISSUE IN DETAIL (below). LIMIT TO ONE BUG PER THREAD.
In Return of Rome, since patch 141935, the idling Sheep often turns invisible, then reappears. Probably because it uses a second idle animation that isn’t available.

the same thing happens to me but only when I use data mods (for example 6x tech 10x resources)

@Grandy02

Could you confirm this issue is happening when you don´t have any mod activated? As @majiira mentinoed, this could be related to a mod that is conflicting with the animation

@IvanHCastro I’m not using mods.
When viewing the dataset of RoR with the Genie Editor, one can see that the Sheep is configured to use a second idle animation (“IdleB”), which doesn’t exist (anymore) in the drs folder.
The base game Sheep doesn’t use a second idle animation.

Thanks for confirming that fast!

I reported the issue, as you mentioned it is related to use an incorrect animation
