Hi guys!  
I need help. I can not train my skills in bashing.  
I have a training dummy, the matching weapon but in the menu the dummy is red.  
What am I doing wrong?

Have you set it up through the construction menu (\*)?

I have discovered the problem.  
I play the German version of the game.  
There is no option to select it in the construction menu.  
When I switch to english there is one.
