Q. So the premise of this mod includes the idea that the player comes from a civilization so advanced they can freeze dry and reconstitute a living animal without killing it. Yet instead of preserving prepared meat using this technique, they bring back the living animal which would then have to be slaughtered in order to be eaten?

A. Yeah. Also, they're that smart yet too stupid to figure out how to automatically fire at targets they can see on radar so they have to trick a chicken into doing it. So the bring back a chicken just to kill it for lunch thing totally tracks.
