Cows are broken D:

Another bug: cows can be stuck in certain locations. They can't eat grass normally in an outlined area.

Cows get `stuck` if they cross an invisible region vaguely marked with yellow. I can move them outside this region and they begin eat as normal, untill they hang up again there. The cows to the right don't suffer of such reasons at all, and that's why there are twice as more cows there :D

They also can be stuck after eating straw if it was placed outside a grass field. But it happens randomly, at 50% chance or less, but it can't be unnoticed.

And, yet another bug: after some time, all the cows begin to fear the straw! O_O They come closer to it and then dash back like it was some kind of threat. Then they begin to eat simple grass nearby. It doesn't happen randomly and this is a constant behavior. But I can't determine when exactly cows get strawphobia.

Can confirm another spot (will upload screenshot soon screenshot added, area affect highlighted) on the field beside the starter forest area the side closet to the forest cows get stuck in as well... it is a bit annoying especially since they keep doing their "moo" noise. And after further testing I have found that in that field it only affects that ONE square...

Cow behaviour is a little unrefined at the moment :) So basically they like to eat cereal and straw the most. They're attracted to it more than grass so if they see some they will try to go for it first but if they're inside a pen and can't reach it they just get 'stuck' in the same place and do nothing. 

The other thing you're seeing is cows are afraid of the player or any bot holding a stick like tool. You can chase them out of your fields with tools and sticks. So they're probably near a worker that isn't moving away and getting constantly scared of it.

Thanks!
