Titanic Lifeform quick question

[Esurnir]

1759 no mods, ironman, all dlc.

Before I make a bug report about it, Are titanic lifeform supposed to be "you only get X ammount ever, and you lose them you can't get them back"?

Just want to know before I make a bug report about a situation I encountered, where i disbanded my armies after making a military academy (hopping to get trained titans) on the lifeform homeworld before realizing that I couldn't rebuild them again.

If that's the case, maybe the tooltip should be rewritten to imply you'll only ever get X ammount of lifeform out of it, not that "you can only maintain X ammount of them" which in the save provided is false : I have none, they are gone, I still can't build them".

Yeah you only get 3 EVER, if you lose one...

Something tell me I'm not going to make friends with the localization team...

and this is a global max of 3 - other planets with titanic life don't add to the limit. (unless I stand to be corrected?)

I've also not had the event pop up in my past few playthroughs, is this limited to a specific ethos?

I -don't- think so ? Though i had a xenophile option of being cautious with them, not sure how much an impact it had but it took a loooong time to research it...

I saw the line in the savefile telling me how many titanic lifeform i build so far. So I assume that, gameplay wise, it's WAD. However I think the tooltip is grossly misleading then.

# Titanic life troops
# Can build on planets with titanic life if you get event + special project there
# Should be very strong and quite expensive, but cannot get attachments and can be built only in limited numbers
# Currently limited to 3. Ideally it would be X * Num of planets you have done the project one, but that is too complex for scripts
