I wonder if fatter animals are slower.

The LAYERS_SLOW parameter of the GAIT token determines whether a creature is slowed by weight or not.

Giant tigers use standard gait variations, which means that a fatter tiger will move slower than a skinnier tiger if it is going at anything faster than a standard walk/standard swim/standard crawl.

However, at these faster gaits strength and agility also come into play, so a muscular tiger will move faster than a fat tiger, even if they're the same weight.

Interestingly enough, I know gladiators generally were fat so cuts wouldn't kill them but still be bloody and entertaining.

How do fat layers work exactly anyways? Does anyone know the nitty-gritty details?

Like if a creature has enough fat, some attacks will just cut the fat and/or muscle right? Will further attacks in that area get through to tendons/bone/organs? Does the game keep track of how many layers of fat in a body part have been pierced during combat?

And will all those layers of fat heal back completely given time?
