How do you guys test your monsters?  Is there a sure fire way to be able to test them really quick.  Will I have to just spend time searching for them in adventure mode?

Heres the monsters I want to test:

I'm thinking these won't work because at the time i created them I thought the [SPECIALATTACK_INJECT_EXTRACT:50:100] was an attack flag and because the extract system is hard coded.  Please tell me if I'm wrong about either of these points or other reasons why my monsters wouldn't work.

Does any one know the messages used when a giant cave spider injects its extract?

Will the min and max damage for my special attacks work? Or can the values not be 0?

This should all probably work.  I know that you attacks of 0 and the extract code is right.

Giant cave spider attacks go like this:
The giant cave spider bites you in the upper arm.
You feel numb!
and then that progresses to
You feel more numb!
You are partially paralyzed!
You are fully paralyzed!

So the special attack is an attack flag?
