Can pets equip weapons?

(1/2) > >>

fitzitz:
I was thinking about making a species of giants that could be used as pets. I was wondering if it was possible to make it so that they could equip weapons, and also how I would go about making their punches annihilate whatever body part they hit.

evictedSaint:
AFAIK pets cannot equip weapons. 

As for the punches, their size should help with that.  If you need a bit more oomph, change the velocity multiplier in their creature raws to make them hit faster.

fitzitz:
Ok, thanks. Is possible to make their skin as tough as copper too?

dennislp3:
Yes...you could go the easy route and make thier skin literally copper...or mess with values in the raws to make it tough like that. Regardless you have to change the specific skin material. Check the bronze colossus raws for how to make the skin a metal or check the wiki for more details on skin materials

pisskop:
You can give them graspy parts and they will use any weapon they wrestle away from a hostile.  (say, making the mouth [grasp] and they wrestle a weapon or skirt)

With natural skill animals will spawn with a weapon (even if only to dorp it when they load, I believe).

Bit I dont think they will pick up and use a weapon willingly.
