Need help with a creature
« on: November 01, 2015, 01:05:40 am »

I am making a megabeast to harass my fortresses, but it keeps immediately melting anything it bites, besides a dragon. What did I do wrong?

My favourite thing in adventure mode is being able to take water out of a waterskin, throw it such that it spins, and then watch it break the arm of my target.

Code: [Select]
[SELECT_MATERIAL:ALL]
      ...
      [IF_EXISTS_SET_MELTING_POINT:55000]
By setting all materials in the creature to melt at this temperature, the materials that are meant to be liquid (such as blood or venom) are always at least this hot. Hence, being injected with such a liquid will be very, very fatal to anything which cannot resist such temperatures.

Ahh... Ok, thanks. I should learn to stop mass copy-pasteing.

It looks like you copy pasted from dragons. If you had just grabbed a few more lines you would have been fine :P.
Code: [Select]
Need to make sure blood and pus aren't solid at regular temperatures.
[SELECT_MATERIAL:BLOOD]
[PLUS_MATERIAL:PUS]

Actually, my problem was I copied to many lines. The Wraiths aren't supposed to be that hot/be fire-proof. I fixed it now, so no worry. Thanks for your help and speedy reply. :)
