Pig and butterflies context menu arrangement

When I hit enter on a tree the context menu from bottom starts with water > pet > harvest.  Which is perfect because then all I need to do is hit enter 4 times and I've done most of what I want to do with a tree.

On chickens it's squeeze > request incubation > name.  Again perfect.

On pigs and butterflies something's off.  On butterflies you start with sing to > name > milk > massage.  On pigs it's pet > nibble > name > feed > capture, but changes to pet > rename > nibble > feed > capture once a pig has a name.

Since the selected context menu starts at the bottom when you hit "enter" on a pig or butterfly, shouldn't the most often used item be first on bottom?  When I use a mouse, or if I use letter keys, it's not really an issue, but most of the time I use arrow keys (or directional letter keys) and I find it convenient to hit enter > enter.  Saves time specially when I'm out collecting a skabillion ingredients for a cooking session.

So for pigs, even after getting a name, was hoping we could stay at pet > nibble > rename > feed > capture.

For butterflies massage > milk > sing to > name/rename.

If I didn't make sense, let's chock it up to hunger and lack of sleep. :)

  • It's alphabetical order, which is why name/rename moves options around.

    It's probably just chance that pigs and trees default option order is very useful, unless the dev team were *very* cunning about the verbs they've chosen!
