Thank you for the offer, but it's mostly just saying one thing over and over: tissue layers not found. I already have [BODY_DETAIL_PLAN] files for the creature, and they contain tissues and tissue layers, and the creature file references them, but something isn't clicking.

Here's the short summary on how creatures are constructed:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I recommend using the templates found in body_robot and body_detail_plan_robot, as they already reference the necessary tissues, and are somewhat different from the ones used by ordinary creatures. Looking at the various robots should give you a good idea on how these templates are put together.

I figured some of that out already, but your post helped me realize what was going wrong. Thank you- that kind of information is hard to find, even on the wiki.

So, I no longer get literally fifty error messages on loading the creature in the arena. Phew. Now I just need to, you know, make sure the syndrome actually works, and then the polished raws can be posted.

Good luck! :) Also be aware that robots don't have a MATERIALS template, as their materials are defined in the tissues in tissue_template_robot.

I know it's been pointed out, but I feel compelled to underline the point again:

BBs suck.  They're not even decent against unarmored, relatively weak animals.  In the ammo menu, disable BBs for hunters and give them small caliber or even medium if your swimming in the stuff.  Removing the hunting labor from the pony you want to hunt will have them drop the BB gun, then re-enabling will cause them to grab up an appropriate weapon.

Really? In my experience they still had BBs, but picked the wrong kind of ammo for them and sucked even deeper. Can someone else confirm this?

Not that hunting in this mod is a good idea anyway, even with rifles. The wildlife just rages and charges the gunners.

Does this work?

Because this changes everything for hunting in non-ghoulish biomes.

Disabling BBs in the ammo menu and replacing it with small or medium caliber will cause your hunters to drop the BBs in their quiver (eventually) and seek out said ammo.

They will not be able to use it, as they still insist on making use of the weapon they're holding (i.e. BB guns).

Disable hunting from said hunter in their labor preferences.  They will drop their quiver of ammo and the BB gun.  Remember to forbid any BB guns to prevent their use.

Re-Enable Hunting after they've dumped the useless stuff.  If you have set them to make use of the other ammo in the ammo menu, they will grab a quiver, attempt to fill it with small/medium/whatever and then seek out an appropriate weapon that makes use of said ammo.

You will then have a hunter hunting with a bit more power behind them.  As was pointed out, though, the wildlife is still deadly but I've had a hunter I nurtured up to Great skill manage to regularly hunt down large radscorpions with a steel combat rifle and medium caliber ammo.

Too bad I had to abandon the fort.  My arch-nemesis showed up (Random Forgotten beast made of insane material and using deadly dust) and wiped my Stable..again...

> BB rifles
I plan to introduce a stronger air rifle in the next version.

> Replacing ammo
This is valuable advice…I’ve attached in the Gameplay Hints and Tips in the first post. Thanks! :)

On an side-note, brisineo’s put up another awesome terminal background, this one for the Ministry of Peace.

Good damned advice, gotta make sure to try that out properly sometime.

I've received permission, Iceblaster. :) If there's one thing that astounds me about the pony fandom, and the FoE fandom in particular, it's all the works of art they produce on a near-constant basis.

On that note, the next update will arrive in around a a week and a half. I feel we've stamped out enough bugs and other issues to finally move the mod out of the beta stage, though I'm still uncertain about Unity invasions and other late-game events (I'm hoping to get a chance to play a long-term Stable myself sometime in the next week). Your suggestions are very much welcome in the meantime!

I also discovered that flamethrowers have reverted to setting grass back on fire, despite the raws, so I'll remove flame weapons from the Steel Rangers permanently.
