New how do I....

[chrispedersen]

Soooo, I've created a new weapon, and I've addd it to the monster. Works great.

Except that the monster is also showing up with a fist
#92. How do I remove that?

Also, while I see a way to add enslave to a weapon, I don't see a way to add charm. Is there?

[Endoperez]

Did you create a new monster, or did you add the weapon to an existing creature? The latter may or may not cause problems.

Is the added weapon a ranged weapon, or a #bonus weapon? Fist is what creatures will have if they don't have anything else, IIRC.

I created a new monster; the added weapon is a ranged weapon. But for flavor reasons, I don't *want* them to have a melee weapon. Kind of silly when they don't have hands etc.

Make a new weapon called "No melee" with -10 to att and 0 damage, no strength.

Problem solved.

Wouldn't using #itemslots to make a one handed moster also work?

[Saulot]

The slots aren't the issue, the weapons it's carries are the issue. And if a monster has multiple weapons and multiple arms and it loses one, then it first drops the shields, then ranged weapons.

Thanks sombre - I already arrived at the samem solution - its just inelegant.

But you did point to the way to a better idea. I'll create a weapon that sounds thematic - like Foreboding Presence - to give it some flair.

Has this been a common issue?

I don't think many people have really tried to make a missile only unit. It isn't something that crops up in the basegame after all.
