See current examples of five tiers and how classification, compatibility and group tools use them. Tiers do not assess personality, ability or rarity.
A tier is a preset profile group
Each animal profile has a predefined number from 1 to 5. The app does not measure leadership or sociability to assign it. This is neither a biological classification nor a reconstruction of a real food chain.
Examples from the current code
- Tier 1: dinosaur, tiger, lion.
- Tier 2: wolf, bear.
- Tier 3: fox, cat.
- Tier 4: dog, deer.
- Tier 5: rabbit, hamster.
These are selected examples, not frequency rankings or recommendations. Animals in the same tier have different gates and detail rules.
Distinguish tiers from classification scores
The classifier compares gates and matched detail counts across all profiles. It does not choose Tier 1 first or award a tier bonus. The tier comes with the selected animal. A random choice among highest-score ties can change both animal and tier.
Use in other tools
- Compatibility: if dedicated pairings and earlier conditions do not apply, one rule checks whether the tier difference is at most 1. It selects a playful 70–89 range, not an assessment of a relationship.
- Group ranking: (6 − tier) × 10 + classification score produces the sorting value. Tier 3 with a score of 4 gives 34. This is a game rule, not real status or ability.
- Organization roles: animal-ID roles take priority; profiles without a dedicated role use a tier-based default. No career aptitude is analyzed.
Interpreting a result
Do not use tier numbers to compare personality, human worth or facial rarity. Encyclopedia character concepts are fiction too. Read the analysis guide, compatibility guide and encyclopedia to distinguish these rules.
