So every place it has "rand & 512 + 512", that should be "rand & 511 + 511"? Or 511 + 512? Or just 511?

OK, anyhow, I have the script working properly (FINALLY!!!). Now I need to know how to make it change the particle to spawn depending on the type (because I don't want to just try and then screw everything up again!).

Well, yeah. I guess.
But that, and I have almost no clue how I'd do it; like what order I should set up the arguments so they don't conflict with each other, and stuff...

I'd do something like this:
(The syntax may not be perfect, but bear with me here.)

IfTargetID [HUMA]
SpawnParticle = 1

In this case, The first particle will be the red blood for humaniods.

IfTargetID [BUGG]
SpawnParticle = 2

The green blood particle for bugs ( Tranches, grubs )

IfTargetID [DEMO]
SpawnParticle =3

Blue for demons. ( Lumpkins mostly )

And so on and so forth.

By the way, you should also make Robots un-eatable.
We don't have any yet, but we will eventually.

Hmm, I only tested on Cobols before so I'm not sure if this is a new problem, but he's only eating humanoids...

You only get 7 particles max and some of them have to be your damage particle(s) (for hand-to-hand combat).

Generally it is not a problem for characters, but some items (like torches) require like 5 particles, un-moded.

I only have 7... What does this have to do with anything, though?
Or, no, wait, I have eight. Drat. It starts at zero...
So is that my entire problem?
