So, I modded in Mongolian Death Worms as a part of my mod (its in releases), and, in testing them, i expected them to be a megabeast tier threat since their "slime" causes severity 100 necrosis wherever it contacts. However, when I went into object testing for it yesterday, not only did it die to a pitiful squad of naked, weaponless, unskilled dwarves, but its secretion didnt even work. There just was no trail behind it.

Here is the code I used, think any of you could help me get it working so I can raise this abomination to the megabeast status it deserves? Also, any tips to make contacting the slime even more dangerous?

try changing this

[SECRETION:LOCAL_CREATURE_MAT:SLIME:LIQUID:BY_CATEGORY:ALL:SKIN:EXERTION]

Edit: you can also change the blood to this poison slime

This creature doesnt have an attack. Give it a bite with an edge and penetration. Can also inject the slime through the bite.

The easiest way to make a creature harder is by:

Increasing body size
Giving it natural skills (dodging)
Giving it attributes
Making its skin a tougher material

I already made it an absolute unit, but i guess i could make it bigger. Do you by any chance know if theres a hard limit to size? It's blood is already slime.

Your creature is slightly larger than a yak. For comparison an elephant is 5000000 and a dragon is 25000000

This explains a lot. Yay for all those zeroes.
