I shall join in with a relatively weak megabeast.
Meet Shinryu, a superboss from the Final Fantasy series. :P


You made him Fanciful, which means he won't appear in play but will be in art. I don't know what that means for Arena, but it won't work in the real game.

PTTG, that's DOES_NOT_EXIST. Fanciful just makes them appear in art regardless of existence status. Vanilla dragons have it, for example.

I think that size calculations are actually more complicated than simply having a max size you can't go over.  It could be that they don't actually come into account until the game tries to calculate a collision, which means that the body's shape and body part relative sizes might have an impact as well.  Sometimes supersized creatures can have even stranger effects than loop-arounds - I have accidentally made giant creatures that would cause all attacks to pass right through them, and they could not damage opponents either - but when I tried to apply the same size to other creatures (to make a 'secret of intangibility', of course), it didn't work.  Also the weight of their corpses were listed as <1...
Sounds like you forgot to define tissues for the critter.
Nope.  It was an otherwise normal Giant Chomp.  Just changing the size caused the intangibility effect.  It was pretty consistent too.

Next: creature with slade glob gatling gun that walls opponent to death. Or necrobeast that makes suicide-bombing animated body parts.
