I\'ve been thinking over the behaviour patterns for brains, and it occoured to me that they could be a lot smarter. (Don\'t throw rocks yet, I don\'t suggest making them IMPOSSIBLE... just close to it) For example, I can think of at least 3 situations off the top of my head where, if the brains moved the creatures \'smarter\', Beethro would die, but he doesn\'t because of the brains flaws.

This got me thinking of a counter-balance to that. Brain-resistant tiles. Any creature on one of those tiles becomes \'seperated\' from the brain until it leaves the tile. Any thoughts?

If the brains were that much smarter, wouldn\'t they just make the monsters avoid the brain-resistant tiles whenever possible?

Well, I suppose so. But there would be some situations where it would be impossible, or having the resistant-tiles make a path could present a solution to the problem. There\'s lots of possibilities if you think of it.
