The rat is a small ground mammal which scavenges for most of its food.

Rats can be found in temperate forests, temperate swamps, tropical rainforests, tropical swamps, arid shrublands, boreal forests, and cold bogs.

Summary[edit]

Rats have 90% Toxic Environment Resistance rendering them highly resistant to environmental effects such as rot stink and toxic buildup from non-attack sources.

Analysis[edit]

Rats breed quickly and are a very cheap animal, both in Market Value and in food costs. They can dispose of all your human corpses or graze on grass. Set an allowed area to exclude your tamed rats from your colony's main food supply, so that they won't eat your food. In the winter, wild rats will also eat your own food if you're not careful.

As tamed animals, rats are very good cannon fodder due to their rapid breed time. While they cannot be trained to attack, you can set an allowed area mid-battle to command your rat army wherever needed. Compared to hares, rats have a lower wildness, meaning they less effort to handle, but hares are faster and reproduce more often. Rats can also eat corpses and other forms of meat.

Training[edit]

This animal can be trained as follows:

Guard:
Attack:
Rescue:
Haul:

*As of version 1.1.2610, all animals can be tamed. The percentage of likelihood of success depends on factors such as the Animals Wildness Percentage, Pawn Handling Skill, and others. More information can be found on the animals page.

↑ Coverage determines the chance to hit this body part. It refers to the percentage of the super-part that this part covers, before its own sub-parts claim their own percentage. For example, if the base coverage of the super-part is 100%, and the coverage of the part is 20%, 20% of hits would hit the part, and 80% the super-part. If the part had its own sub-part with 50% coverage, the chances would be 10% sub-part, 10% part, 80% super part.
↑ Target Chance is the actual chance for each part to be be selected as the target when each part's coverage has been taken into account(I.E. Neck covers 7.5% of Torso but Head covers 80% of Neck so it actually has only a 1.5% chance to be selected). This is not pure hit chance, as different damage types propagate damage in different ways. See that page for details.
↑ Note that capacities can affect other capacities in turn. Only the primary effect is listed. See specific pages for details.
↑ This is the part that everything else connects to to be considered 'connected'.
↑ If Moving drops below 16% a pawn cannot move.
↑ A Scratch attack that varies from animal to animal. Each front paw allows one attack.
