Hi.
I recently modded GCS to be half the size of an elephant. Now though, they aren't even capable of killing a goblin! That is probably because the GCS are now so large that their best opportunity during every combat move is to bite at the heads of the goblins. They have helmets, that always block the hit! So the problem is that the GCS is too large, that could be fixed by making them smaller, so they'd hit other parts.

However, I'd like the experienced players/modders to give me another solution. Can I somehow mod the GCS's bite to penetrate armor? Suggestions welcome. Thanks!

Making them 30 times bigger should help. Also fire breath for good measure. AFAIK you could mod the contact area of their bite

I'm not sure how to do it without staring at the raws for a long time and fiddling, but I think you can replace their teeth (fangs?) tissue with a new steel tissue you create.  That ought to penetrate a goblin's helmet.

Thanks for the help. Could you provide tips for the code? I'll start looking at the raws, though I am only a novice modder :]

Find:

   [ATTACK_CONTACT_PERC:100]

And change 100 to 5. This controls the sharpness of the attacking bodypart. I tested 5 and with standard teeth and size they bit through an iron helmet.

More importantly, that's the percentage of that body part you're striking with.  In attack terms, all body parts resemble a sheet of metal.  Most have a 100% contact, which is like slapping the sheet against something.  If you lower it, that's like making an indent in the sheet.  A 20% contact would look more like:

Code: [Select]

__--------while 100% is just

Code: [Select]

----------If you've made GCS twice as large, and give their teeth attack 50% contact, then they'll effectively be the same as the were.

And if you want true terror, as stated above, give them a tiny contact percentage.  The smaller the number, the sharper the fangs.

Thank you =) I did just that, testing tomorrow.
