New to this game

[Alec]

Ok, I'm new to this game, and I'm on the Norse Island, it's going pretty well and I've almost got everyone to migrate to my city so it rocks and I have a very big and well working city.
But my creature, I don't know if he's good or evil, and I don't think he's grown, I can't see if he's thin or fat and I can't see if he's strong or weak. That's pretty annoying, ain't there a way to find that out?
Also, my creature don't eat by himself, nor does he sleep in his pen by himself :/ Ain't there a way to train him to do that? I've told him to eat grain all the time but he doesn't.
Btw, to keep my villagers happy and to win the map, it requires that I don't have so much attention to my pet and therefore he's not much happy and it's just really confusing :/ Can anyone please help me?  :help

Hey Alec.

F2 will toggle the creature learning menu which should show you a lot about your creature. F3 is the creature roles menu which will show more.

In the creature learning menu, you can bring up the actions he's learnt about and adjust the sliders. If you take the slide up to 100% for eating grain then he should start to do so on his own. I find that once you show your creature a few actions he's start doing things on his own. But he does get bored easily and looks for attention from you when he is.
