I started a mutant tinkerer with 4 unstable genomes, figuring I'd get what I get.

I got surprisingly good ones. I'm level 9 and I already got all four of them. I can't remember what the first one's choices were, but I ended up with multiple legs. Second one was a choice between regeneration, carapace, and burrowing claws. I took the regen. Third one was horns, quills, or night vision. I picked night vision (a cheap one, but useful - and I didn't want horns or quills.). Fourth choice was pyrokinesis, phasing, or force bubble - I got force bubble.

So here I am with three abilities worth 5 points each, and all really useful ones, for an initial investment of 12 points. And the 1 point night vision, but you can't win em all - and even that one is handy, if not expensive.

I decided to wish for a data disk to see which one it gave me, and you know what I got?
Hand-E-Nuke.
even though I can't use it due to lack of tinker III, that wasn't what I was expecting to get

Do not take Temporal Fugue and Burgeoning. It seems as though copy summoned plants are hostile to each other, and your copies abuse the heck out of casting it.

What is the attack button ?

What is the attack button ?

Just walk in the direction of a creature you're next to.
I get this feeling you've played DF a lot.

Also, CTRL+direction force-attacks things.

Ctrl+direction attacking becomes necessary when you want to hack down that odd mangrove tree that blocks your passage in a narrow corridor, or for simply opening up lines of fire.

Or killing neutral or friendly NPCs, like the Zealot or Elder.

I am positive it saved just fine and the character was not bugged or anything. I had wished for a couple things if that matters, though.

It looks like you're trying to load an older saved game with a new version. Most updates will break saved game compatability. In some cases it won't, but it's better to assume that it will.

Maybe they're flying in the air? You can't melee flying enemies.

You can, however, thermal grenade them then run around with them following you until they die of being on fire.

How big is the Hand-E-Nuke's explosion? I've seen it flicker 'Building Zone' at least 4 times, yet it didn't hit me.

Or blast them out of the air with mutant laser powers.

In one game I didnt have any ranged attacks and somehow aggrod the flies. I couldnt go to the overland map, so I had to buy running(older version) so I could outrun them.

It'll cover about three-fourths of the screen at max, but it's damage signifigantly decreases from the center. At the epicenter it does about 40000 damage, but on the absolute outskirts it does about 7. It's an odd little weapon.
