Giant Cave Spiders - Can they swim?
Title says all - Can they swim?
I've got my caverns completely flooded with a low number of islands. If I want my dorfs to catch one, do I have to trap every island or is it enough if theres the door/trap setup on a single island?
I was thinking that they can't, but there are creature remains and giant cave spider silk hanging in trees completely surrounded by water.
Or is it an artifact of worldgen?
