Not sure whether you should consider this a bug or not, but I made a very small base off in the corner of the lake...


...and the biters have locked onto the poor undefended Compilatron.


I mean, apparently he can take it, so I'm not really complaining. But it's probably unintentional, no matter how funny it is.

EDIT: I don't know what this sprite is supposed to be. It's definitely the Compilatron's location, but it doesn't look like him.

Ooh! Ooh! Did I set the record for LEAST kills?! Or maybe longest time?

both

I've had a similar issue, I think 17.9

More specifically, I got to see Compy leeroy-jenkins the biters, and when I tried to establish steam engines in the new area, compy was just sitting there, biters chewing on him. Naturally I had no weapon, so I got my "pickaxe", and went and melee killed several of them. A few detached and tried to kill me.

Something went hilariously wrong there.

we will add some way for Compilatron to deal with (but not kill) the biters. it will involve player intervention however.
