Some questions, is it possible for a creature to be created holding a weapon?

And two, how do you make a specific body part (just the head in this case), out of a different material?

I get the feeling it's got to do with the tissue tags but I'm not quite grasping it.

[Meph]

Yes, it is possible. But I am not qualified enough, I frankenstein my craetures together like there is no tomorrow. Try deon or hugo_the_dwarf, the often do these things.

[Seriyu]

Didja mean weapons or metal body parts? Or both?

[Meph]

Both. I have golems that do that, deon has animated armors and cursed blacksmith, and hugo had a ton of those. But seriously, dont look up my golems, it would only confuse you.

[Seriyu]

Excellent! I'll toss a PM at one of them then, thank yah!

[Putnam]

It's actually really simple.

Created holding a weapon is impossible, but using a new part to simulate the weapon isn't.

You can change the part by making a new tissue in the creature (look at the bronze colossus for an example) then using, in your case, [TISSUE_LAYER:BY_TYPE:HEAD:(tissue)]

[Seriyu]

Oh hey, that is easy. And I was hoping to avoid the body part as a weapon issue (and it isn't a huge deal anyway, just a minor thing), so I'll skip that for now.

[Seriyu]

Okay, metal part got taken care of, works fine, however I removed one leg, as the creature well, has one leg. Because mythology is wierd. And now the toes aren't connecting, despite the fact that there's a perfectly good STANCE bodypart there. I've messed with CON_TYPES and such to try and get them attached, and any time they attach the toenail tissue refuses to go with it. It's not that big a deal, and I could remove the toes, but to be perfectly honest I kind've refuse to let the error log win at this point.

Thanks again.

EDIT: Incidentally, I noticed the 5TOES_LEG just now, it was a typo of a custom bodypart I was  trying, replacing it with 5TOES doesn't help.

If you want that a creature wield weapons, you can create a new simple entity, adding the weapons and armor you want. All the vanilla entities are in 'entity_default.txt', but you can create your own (entity_x.txt). You must add in the raws of the creature the tag [EQUIPS].

[Seriyu]

Hmmmmmmmm that might be a solution to it, thank yah!

Your lower leg tries to connect to RUL which does not exist.
