Re: Invisibility potion + tar growth (0)
Wait, I am even more confused now...why don't tar mothers grow regardless of Beethro's invisibility? I mean, they just want to expand, regardless of Beethro's presence, I should think. I made the same argument earlier with roach queens...I thought they should always spawn every 30 moves. In both cases, if roaches or tar babies don't run after Beethro because of his invisibility, then the spawning will (for roaches) or can be (for tar babies) stopped, but that is reasonable. The most intuitive thing to me is that spawning occurs regardless of Beethro's visibility. The only argument against that is to ask why Beethro doesn't come upon rooms that are already totally filled with tar or roaches. And I don't have an answer to that.
Game on,
