People randomly exploding
« on: November 09, 2007, 08:24:00 pm »

So I'm randomly walking around and all of a sudden every 2 steps I make I get a announcement of "Lizard man has collided with a object" Followed by a bunch of lines of broken bones and what not "Lizard man has died after colliding with a Object" Then 2 seconds later, another thing hits some thing, then even after that some one dies. This is very weird.

Probably, there's a bunch of lizardmen near a cliff somewhere. Critters occasionally fall off cliffs (since climbing isn't in, anything that doesn't fly can fall, even things that should be competent at surviving near chasms), and you'll get a message about it.

Same sort of thing happens if you add the flight tag to a species, and then subsequently remove it - any members of that species that were flying, stop flying and fall.

However, these groups also don't repopulate yet. If the lemmi- pardon, lizardmen don't run out before long, then you might have a problem.  :D

I've seen this too, except with... carp.

Yeah. It says they collide with an obstacle, then lists all their body parts exploding in gore.

Carp explosions are probably the result of going off waterfalls.   :cool:
