I made this plant creature thing on a whim. I got it up and error-free, with a few pieces of help, but there are a few things it just won't do.
-It won't stand up
. Why? I put stance and all and everything at one point or another.
-It won't attack. There is nothing in the errorlog suggesting it can't bite or whip (although it is supposed to be [immobile], to think of it. . .
-It may be to thickskinned. I put it in the arena with a croc and a collossus and 5 minutes later I got bored.
I can increase its speed to quicken its attacking, but I'd rather do it the legit way. While I'm here, is it possible to make it breed even if immobile? Or make it immobile but not stupid? I tried immobile on land, but the wiki was right. . .
I suppose I'll polish him after I fix his functions. No point looking good if your pieces are broken (unless you're military
)
Anywho, here he is, if you'll have a look:

While I am glad to share that large lump of information, there are no errors. That means the only relavent information is the body parts and creature raws.
