Your entity is... wanting, to say the least :P

I think you want 1EYE instead of 1EYES. Also, that MULTIPLY_VALUE:15 is in an odd spot. Also, they're as big as humans, so they could still be pretty hard to kill. Also, if you want them to be not very bright, you may want [SLOW_LEARNER]. Also, run the game and check your errorlog.

Ok thanks  :)  Yeah... the entity is a bit bare because i dont want them making towns and stuff, i just want them to seige my forts.Will the eye plural thing make a difference anyway? their size and multiply thing are probably results of me copy/pasting the human file and changing it :P

It will make the difference between the game recognizing the body part and giving them an eye or the game not recognizing the body part and giving you an error message (leaving them eyeless). Spelling is very important when you are referencing the names of other objects in the game.

It would be brutally difficult and probably won't work. In other words, it's absolutely dwarven!

Yeah, "2EYES" isn't an arbitrary thing--it's an object defined elsewhere in the files.

You should clean out some of the uneccesary stuff from the netherspawn raws that just affect what they look like
and remove
Code: [Select]

To this day the elven warrior castes hunt the enemies of nature for the purpouse of bringing back slain intelligent beings for consumption by their leaders and generals, for the good of nature and the survival of elvenkind.

And that is the story of how napalm was invented.
