Why did my wings spazz out?

General

Everything was going so well. I was a spess doc Lavaland spawn, I got some bone armor and weaponry, killing goliaths left and right easy peasy. Found a miner and we took down a tendril. It gave me a potion which gave me wings.
So I got a bit of damage and ate some fruit. Got fat and the next goliath I fought was a disaster. My wings spazzed out and they threw me almost on top of it, hard stunning me.
I died and I don’t know why. Is it because I was fat? Why does this game have against fatties HMMM???

Also, how would I get rid of fat in Lavaland? The description says to run around, but I’m not sure if that really does anything.

The wings are pretty broken right now, Zesko has a PR open to completely refactor all wings in the game and make them great again.

And getting rid of fatness mostly depends on how much excess nutriment you have consumed, a small amounts over the limit can be removed by just running two laps around a circle as large as main hallways, an epic overconsumption of nutriment will make you fat for the entire round.

Looking at the code, Lavaland Tobacco contains fat-depleting Lipolicide at a 40% concentration, and a seed packet for it spawns in the ashwalker base. Don’t take too much, lipolocide deals toxin damage that increases when you’re starving.

As far as I know, it deals no toxin damage at all as long as you’re fat.

Your’re right, I was going off my memory of the description.

Don’t fly while fighting.

If you get tentacled you spazz out and that is most-likely your demise. I’m fairly sure just taking enough damage also fucks them over.

Wings are still great for miners due to going over lava/abyss while not fighting though.

Fat has nothing to do with it.

If you get slipped while flying your wings spazz out
