have they become too frequent?

in the last minutes i have killed a giant olm, a GCS, a cave croc, a giant toad, another giant olm and another cave croc. my militia passes more time killing stuff than training, is not like it is a bad thing but they are too frequent.

i mean, im getting one agressive creature after another. there should be a time between these creatures to appear.

[Witty]

From what I've seen, this is pretty typical behavior. One large creature replacing another once it's dead that is. I agree there should be a bit of a cooldown between wildlife "waves", since it is kinda silly.

Do they not go extinct after a while ? I know they did before 0.40.xx if you were overzealous with your hunting or cage trapping.

I think i'm going to cage trap the hell out of my first cavern exits and see if I get an infinite amount of giant cave spiders haha i wish, i'll probably have more crundles than cages

I thought caging them kept their "wave" active and prevented new large predators from spawning?

It is a funny mental image with giant cave spiders waiting nervously a couple meters outside the map edge, able to see into your territory but waiting for the previous wave to get killed before deciding to enter.

i dont know about that. but i have killed several GCS, ogres, trolls, crocs, giant olms, crundles, troglodytes and even a cave dragon and they still come. dralthas and rutherers are incredibly rare. same for elk birds and jabberers. bugbats appear from time to time too. and some naked mole dogs. but its mostly the first ones i mentioned. ahh. and giant toads. i could set a whole farm with those.

Yeah, it does. But since I usually tame what I catch...

I'd capture those bugbats, if you're willing to mod them to be trainable. They can be quite vicious in large numbers.

[Naryar]

So, I cage-trapped all my first cavern floor accesses.

And the. animals. never. stop. coming.



:O

[Dwarf4Explosives]

If you train them, you'll have quite the army. Also, what the actual HFS.

[hegchog]

In my fort I have next to no important cavern creatures. They are all just crundels or troglodytes with one giant mole every now and then.

it seems the surroundings have an influence on the rate of creature spawning, the problem is that it maybe be a little too much. it seems to depend in the location, i had the same rates of spawning both in a wilderness and in a joyous wild. the wilderness should have a minor rate of spawning due to being a neutral/neutral location, but it has the same as a good/savage one.

maybe is random as much of the things in the game
