Summary0010520: Bronze colossus is not automatically aggressive towards adventurer
DescriptionBasically what the title says - Bronze Colossus just hangs out at his shrine until I attack first. Also experienced a similar behavior with a Roc. In past versions these creatures would rush me immediately upon visual contact. Not sure if this applies to megabeasts across the board, I will update if I have more information.

I did have this occur with Hydra in my save but I wasn't sure if me being an elf had some wonky interaction there. It also ignored my companion as well (who was not an elf).

Saves uploaded to http://dffd.bay12games.com/ would help with this.

Assuming this is an issue, it was introduced no sooner than 44.04. I genned a world in 44.03 with thousands of megabeasts, and the hundreds of monsters (children included) that streamed out from the several lairs I discovered were most definitely hostile...

Also just struck up a conversation with a cyclops, which was a friendly conversation until I told him about the giant I killed. Then he spit at me and we fight. Not sure if related. Probably though. I'll try to get a save right next to a colossus or one of these things.

Okay, update: from that very save point - I reloaded. Things were as I left them, colossus within my vicinity not caring about me at all. I leave to get a more appropriate weapon for the job, and return - and upon my return NOW he rushes me. I'm not sure what changed to facilitate this behavior as I had not attacked him yet.

It is happening in fortress mode also - a forgotten beast completely ignores my dwarves (I wish I had see that before ordering my squad to attack it...)

I've just had this occur with a semi-megabeast. Modded game but should be nothing that messes with hostility: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/303339555057172490/403281828976394250/unknown.png

I reported the same giant's death from earlier (the one that earned me hostility from a friendly cyclops), but this time to a maceman located in a meadhall - I was going to use the positive reputation gain to get him to join me and help me take down the colossus in my save, but he was repulsed by what I told him, spat at me, and then I couldn't fast travel from the area anymore.
