Summary0008622: Can't spawn some underground creatures in Arena mode.
DescriptionWhen I tried to spawn a cave floater in Arena mode, I couldn't find it through the filter or the list. I could also see a bunch of other creatures were not on the list. Checking with the wiki, I think it is only some underground creatures that have been omitted, though there could be more.

I re-downloaded 0.40.19 onto a different part of my computer to make sure that the raws weren't accidently changed, but they were still missing.
Steps To ReproduceGo to Arena mode, press c to spawn a creature and type "cave", "blind" or "pond" into the filter, notice several species aren't listed.
Additional InformationI think it could originate from the compiling issue that happened a while back.
TagsNo tags attached.

Did you forget to remove the [ARENA_RESTRICTED] tag from the creatures in the creature_next_underground raw file?

Yes, all underground creatures in creature_next_underground have [ARENA_RESTRICTED], causing them not to appear in arena mode, presumably for spoiler reasons. That's deliberate, though it's possible that Toady might change it at some point.
