Creature Won't Attack
« on: July 05, 2015, 08:48:26 pm »

I have a creature. They're undead, and can raise other corpses as undead. However, when they try to attack, or when something attacks them, the attack "passes right through". Any help?

That generally happens when tissues aren't loaded correctly. Try looking in the errorlog, it generally notices such a problem. As for fixing it, I remember it being kind of difficult, and depends a lot on the specific case. I'm not in a situation to find exactly what need a to be done.

Its a feature. Impregnating booze is a planned tech tree for dwarves and this is a sneak peek at it.

Move the tissue below the body. Needs a body size.

Needs a body size.
This. For now your creature is, well... literally non-essential.
