I think you're forgetting that the hellicopter it's based off of is an inanimate object. Obviously the proper way to refer to them would be as "it".

Also solves the bathroom problem.

I could make the game call them "it" but then they couldn't breed. If they can't reproduce they will go extinct in worldgen. A solution might be creating very rare male and female castes while making the current ones genderless.

Why not make it like ants? Queen hellacopter at the top and everything else is separated in castes.

We could do that, maybe having a King Copter to make breeding work. However, we'd want Pikachu's opinion first, right?

What if we made Trojans a night creature, like a vampire behaves? That seems to work for the concept better.
what would be the difference?
**Edit again, starting looking at the copters. Switching to copper seems like a good choice. Why do they turn into a bar when they die? Also, the shooting interaction doesn't seem to work. Trying to fix it.
they turn into a bar, just like a fireman. I don't like statue-drops, because they rarely look anything like the creature that turned into it.
change [CDI:MATERIAL:INORGANIC:IRON]  to [CDI:MATERIAL:INORGANIC:IRON:SOLID_GLOB] for them to fire.
Is it necessary for the copters to shoot 12 times at once? What if they just had one shot at a time, but fired extremely fast?
what do you mean by "fire extremely fast"? they fire every tick, so how can they fire faster?
Why not make it like ants? Queen hellacopter at the top and everything else is separated in castes.
I guess so. How about multiple castes?
possible caste ideas
  • Queen: giant hellacopter. fires a single slade bullet in 20 ticks.
  • King:fight like a gunner fights now.
    • Worker: just a normal hellacopter
    • Gunner: just a gunner hellacopter. mught be weaker than a regular gunner is now
    • Poison: fires poison, instead of solid copper.

1.Being Night Creatures is how the game handles things like that normally, so it should work better.

2.I meant more why do they turn into anything at all, why not just a normal corpse?

3.Just that it might be simpler that way.

4.These castes might work, I'd make Kings and Queens extremely rare. That way, they won't appear in normal positions, but the game will force them to appear if an entity position requires it. I don't think it's possible to make a creature spit poison without DFhack, but the other castes should be doable.

Really? I'm pretty sure that a position that doesn't have the creature needed, just lets any creature into the position.
you can have them spit poison, just change SOLID_GLOB to LIQUID_GLOB and their spitting out whatever they were firing before in liquid form.
just change the material to the poison, and there you go.

IndigoFenix deserves some credit here, I stole the poison spit from here. They still seem somewhat overpowered to me, but this should be better. I made the old gunners the new King caste, with the gunner now firing a 12 shot burst every 700 ticks. The queen is the size of an elephant. The poisoner has a delayed effect, but really hurts and potentially kills once the creature feels it. Clothing can stop it though. The effect could be changed if Pikachu or somebody else wants to. I think that increasing the size of their heads might work to make them easier in Adventure Mode, since players tend to make more logical target choices than the AI does.

I can work on the Trojans later if we still want to do that.

*Should have mentioned before, I saw in the arena that the old gunner caste was able to fight fairly with a bronze colossus. Also, their ability to shoot is lost when either gun is destroyed. Should that be changed so that they can keep firing with either gun?

yeah, I'd like it if they can fight with either gun. also, although I'm having trouble finding where I put the text where I put my findings, I remember the following. with worldsize at pocket, and history length at max, I created a world. there were 121 hellacopters. I made the king and queen caste, and positions to force them in. then I created a pocket world with just 125 years. there were over 4000 hellacopters in the world. until I made kings and queens the same pop_ratio as a gunner, I kept getting over 3000 hellacopters in the worlds. I should note that each of these worlds had only one hellacopter civ. have you tested you version to see how many hellacopters you get? what was the purpose of having rarer gendered castes anyway? because if it was to lower the population, it sure didn't work.

I hadn't counted the individual copters, I wasn't trying to make them rarer as a whole, just to make the especially dangerous ones less common.

I hadn't counted the individual copters, I wasn't trying to make them rarer as a whole, just to make the especially dangerous ones less common.
I think the reason there were so many, was because it kept creating them until there were at least one king and one queen. so, while the dangerous ones can be rarer, we really shouldn't have it so it's rare to get male and female ones.

Why don't we make two of each of the non-royal castes so they can be male or female?

Here's the updated hellacopters with genders and separately firing cannons. Haven't checked the overpopulation issue though. How were you seeing that?

 *Edit, I looked in Legends Viewer at a pocket world. There were significantly more hellacopters than other beings. Maybe it's because they never die of old age. Made another world with them after giving every caste but the royal ones a human lifespan. They seemed to have reasonable numbers, but it seems like they took major casualties from a great icosahedron attack in 230. I'll keep trying for a world where a major disaster doesn't hit them. I think the lifespan idea will work though.

*Edit again. In another pocket world they had a decent history they outnumbered everyone else. I'm not sure what the reason is.
