I have to agree, the spikes are ultimately useless in fending them off, when they spit at it, or attack it from the sides, only kills I've managed is by getting biters to chase me onto them, other than that they'll sit safe and attack them till they're destroyed, so an update that makes them not target them would be useful

Hi joshissac, thanks for the response. I will work on an update as fast as I can... Maybe release some the mod for older versions of Factorio too.

Hi 1940404846, I did some research on the bitters and their AI. The AI sees the spikes as an entity therefor it will attack it. In some rare cases you will see biters attack rails... see forum post: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?t=34339 The same happens when the spikes are packed on top off each other which make the game AI think there is to many entities. I hope I explained your question a bit. What I added to the mod now is the ability to be resistant to biter attacks! You will still see biters attacking your spikes but they wont break them, instead they will get killed.
