I agree with Zylon completely. By making them do damage, you're altering the intent of the arrow as it created and balanced for the gameplay.
Rob had a great idea with the bash stim of Zero. That would be perfect.

Zombies shouldn't need to breath (set Drown Damage to 0.00)
All AIs should have 'Head' as their Vision Joint.
Sword/blackjack should have Weapon->Collides With Terrain: True
Set up correct flinders for old crate flinders, barrels, explosive barrels, etc.
- Things to add:
Moveable Banners (See NVGizmos)
Frob-light candles (see my tutorial)

Can the spiders who see out their butt be fixed?

They can? :wot: Which ones?

They only see with their butts when they're standing still: Their idle motion makes them turn around occasionally, and when they're facing the other way, their eyes are still focused forward. Kinda hard to fix without totally changing the spiders' idle motion.

I just think it's absurd to be able to KILL someone with a water arrow. In some RPGs this issue is explicitly addressed in various ways, to prevent silliness like being able to kill an elephant with a pointy stick, or a squad of spearmen from sinking an aircraft carrier.
Is it then absurd to knock a guard out by hitting him in the butt?
But I guess one of the things lacking in regards to the AI is the lack of hit points.
In any case, it's highly probable that a well placed shot with any arrow would kill or at the very least cause some damage, but in keeping within the constraints of this engine and it's physics, It can appear otherwise.
*Pointy sticks are prolly what them hunters used in the beginning.

Pain != damage. By your logic, a game of paintball should be fatal.
Yes...there have been reported deaths by paintballs and paintball gun accessories.

There have been reported deaths from all sorts of stupid things. The extreme ends of the probability curve should never be taken as a rule of thumb.
