No offense, but thank god.

I may or may not have found this out when I tried to slip in a monster capable of instantly resurrecting all Holistic Spawn remains on the map when it appears :)  It sadly didn't work.

E: Argh, it looks like another exploit I often used in my interactions (to wit, interactions without usage hints being spammed constantly whenever the unit has a chance to do so) doesn't work anymore. Now I have to completely-rework the Spawnitis transformation. regekaanklbeare

Incidentally, I've seen in a number of places the idea of a necromancy-bomber. Basically, a reanimation interaction that causes corpses to explode violently rather than waking them up. Seems like it could be a useful ability for something or other.

A way of preventing that spawn uber-ressurector from doing his thing.

While violently immolating everything on the map? Sounds like a sweet deal to me.

Moot point though, because as I noted the uber-resurrection no longer works due to units apparently now having a hard requirement to be able to see their targets to use interactions on them.

Yeah. On the other hand, since we'll obviously be placing the fort in an evil biome, it'll surely have uses.

Well, I would assume that's because it sort of helps to know something's actually there, and not a moldy sock with some half-eaten cat meat in it instead.

Aaaaaactually that's entirely up to the undead and if they're still stupidly OP or not.

...logically, undead are OP by simply existing, so have fun Splint.

@Frog: -Can flying creatures see anything on Z-levels below it that aren't underground?

  -Is it possible to make it so if a interaction is used it affects everything on the map? Then one targetable entity will ruin everyone's lives...

That's what I'm sad about :( Previously, if you didn't specify a maximum range and target number and didn't specify that a target had to be within LINE_OF_SIGHT, the interaction would hit everything. But that doesn't work anymore, and to my knowledge there isn't a replacement technique yet. *curls up into a ball and cries*

That would just murderate EVERYTHING AT ONCE, unless that's fixed?
