What it is

The Creator of Flies is the Mutants’ flying-unit factory: 250 minerals and twenty-six seconds in build 23882143. The description states “Biofactory for the production of flying mutants.” Its linked production component names the Mutant fly. The health record has 1 000 base hit points, a 50-point reserve capacity, 0 armour and area coefficient 0.2. A linked healing component is also present. These records establish more than an unarmoured production shell, but they do not make healing or aircraft production universally available without the relevant game conditions.

Where it comes from

The Creator of Flies and Formative house both cost 250 minerals and take twenty-six seconds in build 23882143. Matching price and timing do not make them interchangeable: their production components point to different units. The air factory lists the Mutant fly and also carries a healing component, while the ground factory lists a collector and several biomachines. Those connections are stronger evidence of role than a claim that the faction trades all armour for health. Read the produced unit’s page when comparing combat options; factory price alone does not settle the next investment.

How it is actually used

For 250 minerals and twenty-six seconds, the Creator of Flies opens the production route recorded for the Mutant fly. Its 1 000 base hit points do not prove survival against stray fire or full damage from every attack. The linked healing component adds a support role worth checking alongside aircraft production, alongside its placement relative to the other factory. Position it around the route its output needs and the units that may benefit from support. Whether the ground factory or air factory should come first depends on those needs, not the shared construction price.

How to beat it

The Creator of Flies has 1 000 base hit points and area coefficient 0.2, neither of which proves that any cheap weapon is equally effective against it. Its replacement configuration costs 250 minerals and twenty-six seconds, but construction availability and remaining resources still matter. Targeting it can threaten the recorded Mutant fly production route and its attached support role. Compare that disruption with the ground factory’s output and nearby defenders before choosing the raid target. Zero armour is one defensive field, not permission to ignore weapon type, accuracy and the attacker’s position.
