 icon Rattlesnake tail and head switched (0)  
I built a 2x1 rattlesnake in the editor and its tail came after the head. Also, as soon as I played the room, it started growing and kept this while a blood effect came out in each and every tile it stepped in. The rattle-adder was also able to walk back into his own body and head and couldn't kill Beethro.

As with all bug reports, it's helpful if you say which version of DROD you're using, and explain exactly how we can replicate the bug, what your error file says, and ideally attach a hold file which demonstrates the bug.

If this bug is replicable, I demand it be turned into a feature, this sounds amazing.

I agree, that should be called "Addersnake" or "Rattler".

For future reference, if you go into your DROD data directory (Usually in your ProgramData/Caravel/drod-3_0/ on newer Windows machines) there is a file called "drod.err", which contains error logs from DROD. It's helpful to have that file.

However, you shouldn't need to bother uploading it here, because your hold replicates the errors pretty well.

Any chance you can describe exactly what you did, as close as you can remember, to place the rattlesnake like that?

I have just been placing random rattlesnakes through the room as I was really bored, and then that one appeared. I remember I actually tried to put the tile of the rattlesnake on his head on purpose and here we go.

I can't reproduce this. I'm going to need more specific steps to make this happen reliably.
