A small (for now) creature mod that adds robotic enemies to the world. Less magical than your average iron man or bronze colossus, these machines of war will prove a challenge to your fortress (or not)

Currently it adds 3 creatures, though more are planned as I get better at creature modding:

  • Copper Sphere: a ball of copper roughly the size of a human. It's quite soft, but it's easily able to crush armored dwarves with its raw weight.

  • Smelter: A ground-hovering and slow robot made of pigiron. Despite its size, it's quite fragile due to its material; but each strike with its proboscis will spew molten iron onto the hit body part, simply hovers over automatic traps, and it is immune to fire and magma(!). You're probably going to take some losses with anything less than iron or bronze.

  • Scanner: A flying robot made of lightweight tin. It's barely even a threat to a peasant, but they enjoy stealing items and flicking levers with their claw limb.

The scanner is found in colder regions, while the other two are mainly found in deserts and underground.

You should be able to melt their remains down for some metals as you can with severed colossus limbs, but I barely touch fortress mode so I cannot say this with certainty. At worst you'll have to dispose of them with an atom smasher...
