Hey!
I'm running around, raiding ant hives and such. I do the trick by raiding, running to the water and let them know they can't get me, then I go back and raid it.
I found out, that I can go out in 1 tile of shallow water, which is the shortest range of shallow water around the coast, and they can't get me from there.
Though, I was wondering if I could do the same thing with a boar, bear and fox? Or do they have a longer range of attack?

Re: Animal attack range?
Their attack range is about 1 tile. It's a little hit or miss if you're in one deep shallow water though. I like to use diagonal tiles for it where possible.

Re: Animal attack range?
But must other animals will follow you out in the the water right? This trick only works on ants - right?
You can't use it to get a boar to stop attacking you right?

Animals will constantly try to attack you each 10 second cycle. You can see this happening when they twitch.

I saw my brother doing the same thing with boars and foxes, but he went out farther, cus there was more shallow water. I just hadn't seen him do it on 1-tile shallow water, so that's what I was wonderingArurra wrote:But must other animals will follow you out in the the water right?

Re: Animal attack range?
The animal can still reach you across one tile shallow though.

Thank you for the tip - so newbes (thats me) if confronted by an angry boar or bear - run to the sea
