I think sorting should be added for plants and animals that drop from chests. What I mean is that there should be an option to choose the exact place where a specific animal or plant will spawn.

For example, I select 12 tiles for cows, and when I open a chest and get a cow, it is placed within those 12 tiles. It simply takes a lot of time to move something from one part of the game area to another.

I think players enjoy the process of merging, clearing, and decorating much more than dragging items one by one across the entire game area.
