Hi all,

I'm trying to make a creature that is a swarm of Illithid tadpoles, and I can't get the [NUMBER] token to work.  It doesn't currently produce any errors in the errorlog, although it did when I set the number to 100 (as in [NUMBER:100]).  Specifically, it said that I couldn't enter a number larger than 33, so I know that it's reading and interpreting the token.  None the less, it doesn't seem to work.  This is what I have:

But when I check in game, it just has the 4 bodyparts, with no numbers.  The same thing occurs with the tentacles of a different illithid caste.

Can anyone help out?

[Daywalkah]

I'm probably wrong, but with almost all creatures it won't show all of the body parts. Try injuring it first to see if one of the questioned parts appears.

[D_E]

It is the SMALL token that makes a body part not show up unless injured.  These parts show up; there's only one of each, not 25. 

I did check that anyway, though:  the grapple menu shows external SMALL parts even if they aren't damaged, so I used it to check if there was any weirdness going on that could be seen that way.  There wasn't.  I also let some soldiers hack at these for a while; as far as I can tell the NUMBER token really isn't working.

[D_E]

The NUMBER token appears to just be broken.  I took the [SMALL] tag off the ribs, and as far as I can tell those aren't being duplicated either.

One for the bug tracker, I guess.
