When giving a Preta food to befriend it, it'll say I successfully gave it the food, but it will still be starving+no food is anywhere on the ground+it won't befriend me.
Also, why are there SO many Devas around the desert?

I think they like the middle... just like Preta's like living off the map...  |

yeah pretas feel pain under temperatures other find comfortable, they like the barren places effectively. unless the preta was already friends with you, that sounds like a bug.

Well, that's a bug then. We're not friends.
Also, I was talking about DEVAS, not PRETAS in the desert... so if your last statement was true, then that's also a bug..?

It's appropriate that they can take food forever but always be hungry.... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PretaPretas are invisible to the human eye, but some believe they can be discerned by humans in certain mental states. They are described as human-like, but with sunken, mummified skin, narrow limbs, enormously distended bellies and long, thin necks. This appearance is a metaphor for their mental situation: they have enormous appetites, signified by their gigantic bellies, but a very limited ability to satisfy those appetites, symbolized by their slender necks. Pretas are often depicted in Japanese art (particularly that from the Heian period) as emaciated human beings with bulging stomachs and inhumanly small mouths and throats. They are frequently shown licking up spilled water in temples or accompanied by demons representing their personal agony. Alternately, they may be shown as balls of smoke or fire. Pretas dwell in the waste and desert places of the earth, and vary in situation according to their past karma. Some of them can eat a little, but find it very difficult to find food or drink. Others can find food and drink, but find it very difficult to swallow. Others find that the food they eat seems to burst into flames as they swallow it. Others, if they see something edible or drinkable and desire it, it withers or dries up before their eyes. As a result, they are always hungry. In addition to hunger, pretas suffer from immoderate heat and cold; they find that even the moon scorches them in the summer, while the sun freezes them in the winter. |

I thought about that but that'd make players turned into Pretas dull. I think it's best if they just get hungry much faster than other creatures.
