It has no a single caste. I mean, at least lack of CASTE_NAME tag is essential, as I could say.

Oh, no, wait. Is it a vermin? If yes, then the answer is that vermin cannot be spawned on arena.

Oh, wait, it has LARGE_ROAMING. Then I have no idea.

Waaaait. Does it even has BODY token?

Yes, it does. Again, no idea then.

I would still rather recommend adding CASTE_NAME tag. It could be that the creature can be spawned, but you can't find it under the name you're searching.

Indeed. Creatures need castes to... creature.

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

No they don't. Creatures start with a default caste (called DEFAULT, interestingly enough).

Huh. Never mind, then.

...

If it's not Sver's name suggestion, check that it's in a correctly formatted file, with [OBJECT:CREATURE] at the top.

I would try to remove the ARTIFICIAL_HIVEABLE, COLONY_EXTERNAL and VERMIN_BITE tags one by one and see if any of those are making it arena-ineligible due to vermin-ness.  If you can get it in the arena that way, you'll be forced to do your real testing in very young worlds.

[CASTE_NAME:stiletto wasp:stiletto wasps:stiletto wasp] missed. Arena does not know how that thing named.

Also, it seems, vermin bite- related tokens does not work with non-vermin creatures.
And wasps do not die after stinging. Only honey bees do.
Anyway, why dog-sized wasp thing should die after stinging?
