Winded At Beginning of Play Now!
« on: August 11, 2008, 02:30:46 am »

Hello, this is my first post here; I've been playing DF since November or December last year.  I cannot say in words how much I've been wanting a game like this to play!

I modded in a race and I have modded them as "play now!", but every time I start a character of this race, they immediately have serious wounds, and are all winded. Of course, making so many movements, I die of suffocation. Here are the new entries:

[BODY:ARMS_CLAWS]

I would greatly appreciate any help possible, thank you all.

Your race has no mouth, hence cant breathe. Try adding ":MOUTH]" to the end of your body section

I've added ":MOUTH]" and they're still winded and suffocating.

No neck also makes you unable to get air to your lungs

There's no HEAD bodypart. There's BASIC_HEAD. Look in your errorlog from time to time.

Mouth is totally optional.

No neck also makes you unable to get air to your lungs
Neck is optional too.

It was one of my most common mistakes when I started to mod creatures =).
And Sean is right. "errorlog.txt" is your best friend here.
