when you attack with the tank and use the main gun, the bitters didnt attack.. but they did if i use the machine gun
they did not attack if i ram the nest .....
its peace modei know but..still... ramming the nest must "shock" the inhibitant..i guest

wait, biters are supposed to attack in peaceful mode when triggered? I had a peaceful-mode game in 11.17 and there I could do anything I wanted without any biters attacking me. I could ram them/their buildings, shoot them/buildings and not once did any of them attack me. I had never used peaceful mode before and thought that's how it was supposed to be.

well..they attack only when you attack em first.. this is how is supposed to work in peace mode... i havent try peace mode since few updates, but it was always like that before, since that mode exist.

When you attack biters / spitters with cannon they should still attack. There is now a fix in 0.11.19 that when Worms / Spawners are attacked they will call for help the nearby biters / spitters.

There are still some limitations. For instance worms will never be shooting in the peaceful mode. This is mostly due to technical reasons. We might change this in the future however we would need some confirmation that sufficient amount of people are actually using peaceful mode and would like this.

personally, i use peace mode only occasionnaly .. to test things, or just to play a quiet game (but with loads of bitters nest everywhere)
