Giant Scorpions all Bark and no Bite
« on: September 27, 2015, 10:25:00 pm »
I've got a mote filled with tamed giant bark scorpions.  Of course, I thought that would be an incredibly effective defense, but I checked my combat logs after the last battle, and the giant bark scorpions never tried to attack the attackers, even after being attacked or becoming enraged.  What decides if a tame animal will fight back?  Do they need to be war trained?  Is there some kind of aggression token I should give them?  Are scorpions just too stupid?

Did you have a civilian alert active?  That prevents all animals from attacking.  They try to path into the alert burrow and will not even counterattack when attacked.
