« on: July 31, 2016, 03:01:35 pm »

I wanted to make  a waterhole with crocodiles, but whenever i shove a enemy in there he just kills my crocodiles with his fists and they wont fight back any suggestions ?
Same with Helmet Snakes

I had a chained war grizzly get beaten to death by a troll.  The grizzly never even took a swipe.  Just stood there until he died.  Same with a war leopard.

known bug, creatures will not fight.
i had a friendly GCS wandering in a busy hall as all my dwarves passed by it. the spider never once attacked anybody, and none of my dwarves got scared of it and attacked it so i just let it stay there for a while.
eventually i got tired of it breaking my doors (building destroyers do destroy buildings with the glitch i guess) so i caged it and now its in a place where i can use it for a silk farm if the bug ever gets fixed (as of now it wont web anyone)

If you can lay your hands on undead you'd still be able to use the GCS for a silk farm. That's what I usually do (with the added benefit that the GCS can then be trained, and thus won't block new waves of critters in the cavern it came from).
