Hi guys, I've been playing TCD since v5 (mostly building houses) and reading the forum occasionally. There's a thought I wanted to share with you all and especially with Jason, who does great work on this game.
I really understand why animals don't move when a tool is used, and it's quite important for balance, but it's just not too realistic and gives another advantage to the robber: this way he can cut his way through a house followed by a pitbull right behind him without having anything to fear (as long as he has enough tools to do so).
My suggestion is quite the opposite. Because using a tool in reality requires time, it could be like this: while you use a tool, animals (and family members) move twice. In other words, you 'freeze' for one turn. This way you would have to take care of pitbulls threatening you before cutting through walls.
Using explosives could require even more time.
What do you think?
