So I was playing normally and then biters attacked something, so I checked the icon at the bottom of my screen and I saw this...:

...and I thought I should take a screenshot and post it here.

EDIT: I waited couple of minutes for sun to raise, here's a better screenshot: http://imgur.com/e4xOc9B

Are you using the advanced-logistics-system mod?

Yes, it's because of it ?

Most likely, yes. Advanced-logistics-system creates an invisible character and makes sure it never dies by healing it to full health every tick – that's what they are attacking.

Since this is a mod issue, moving to not a bug.

Ohh, that's why... Well, now I'm considering removing it from my mods. Thank you for help.

The mod should simply mark the character as not-destructible That way aliens won't even attack him as it is not possible, can someone tell him?

Or alternatively you could give the invisible character a Max Health of 0, which should achieve the same effect of not being destructible.

Code: Select all

...destructible = false

I looked at the mod and it's not cleaning up the invisible character it's making to do "remote view" so it's a multi-part issue with the mod.

Thank you guys for pointing these issues out, i just update the mod to Version 0.2.11, using the "destructible" attribute and also setting the health/health recovery to 0.

I also added proper removal of the ghost entities when a player returns from remote view - thx Rseding91 for pointing that one out

Well, I'm glad that I helped you get that worked out
