My creature can't see, and suffocates instantly?
« on: August 22, 2014, 06:30:29 pm »
So I'm trying to make an evil, ten times bigger, horned, and three headed version of the dog: CERBERUS.
Buuuut... It dies nearly instantly, doesn't fight back, and suffocates in two steps. What's wrong with it? I took the organs and everything directly from the dog, just made a quadruped body with three heads instead of one. What's wrong with it?

[CREATURE:CERBERUS]
   [DESCRIPTION:A large, three-headed carnivore.  It can track any creature with it's three noses.  It has been known to work with others, or gore them with it's horns instead.]

Could you put it in a code tag, please? It just helps with clutter.

You might want to check your errorlog to see if there is anything in there.

Are the body parts you defined in the [BODY] tag real? Make sure that the appropriate body parts defined actually exist in a body file, and that spelling is correct.

Normally something like this is caused by there not being a proper thought-type bodypart, such as a brain.

Post your error log.

I would imagine some of his body_detail plans arent meshing, offhand.

Fixed it! It had some horrible problem with having one spine and three heads, so I put in the bronze colossus' no nervous centre for movement, and the [EXTRAVISION]. the Cerberus is pretty strong, since it feels no pain, but it can be killed by anything larger than it or with good dodging skills.

My COIN:NONE:INORGANIC:COPPER is on that one too. Im thinking you didn't define the body type..

If you had you would've likely posted it in here to make sure you didn't make an error in it  8)

I remembered about an hour ago Body_detail_plan is for defining tissue layers, not BPs.  I hoped nobody would have noticed.  :P
