Give it a huge speed and add IMMOBILE_LAND.

They will still move around but very slowly.

You can make creature to drop items only when butchered, and then you can add a lot.

Or make it to drop a "chest" and make a lockpicker's workshop which "opens chests".

That's an excellent idea! I'm actually about to make a mimic creature, so I didn't want it to be immobile.

You amaze me Deon.

That's why Deon is the resident Modding God.

Along with a lot of other people.

So wait, what does [IMMOBILE_LAND] actually do if the creature still moves?

I thout of that option but that sucks. If I am an adventurer I dont want some reaction or anything! I just want to break the lock(Yeah its a body part) And Get the steel sword. BTW Deon, do you know how to make the item magical? with the <ITEM> look on it except the  <> are filled?

Imobile_land makes it not move on land/drown on land but since my chest dose not move It wont drown.

@ WORSHIPERS OF DEON: You are so un dwarfy!

I think they're used for fish.

So they flop around.

IMMOBILE_LAND breaks their movement a bit. With a huge speed they move really slow. Make it a  speed 10000 or something. I don't know is there a high limit for that.

I believe once it gets to a certain point it goes the same speed as [SPEED:0], so avoid doing that.

I never mentioned this before - do magical items actually cause magic damage?
