Hello, first post here. Been trying to figure this modding out as I go along, but I finally hit a wall I couldnt overcome, nor did asking people I know solve my issue.
What Im trying to create is a creature transformation which turns your enemies into a walking resource farm. I am looking for them to have an immortal,impotent core made of porcelain, with a shearable layer of materials such as wax, wood, stone, meat, glass, and so on... basically a sheep that grows wood instead of wool.
Here is my Creature Raw
[CREATURE:HARROWED_MAN_MEAT]
[DESCRIPTION:The victim of powerful magic, they now walk the world as a living farm, doomed to eternal torment as their flesh is constantly cut from their bodies only to have it grow back again.]

The issue I'm having is that they seem to be made entirely of porcelain. In the arena, you would expect that creatures made of fat and soap and wax would melt faster than ones of glass, but this does not happen. They simply do not melt or show any sign of injury until I raise the temperature high enough to melt the porcelain core. The only thing that happens when I raise the temperature is that they become immobile for some reason.
I have tried making the flesh layer a
[TISSUE_SHAPE:LAYER] that heals, a [/size][TISSUE_SHAPE:STRANDS] that grow, I have messed around with layer order and such.Im really at a loss as to why this wont work. Does anyone have an idea as to how I can turn my pitiful walking kebabs into a reality?Also, are there any materials which cannot be made shearable? are there any which cannot be made milkable? (I was planning to make a category of them milkable for materials such as water, honey, lye, etc.)
