I could easily live comfortably with just the storage in Lower Deck 01. That’s what it’s there for.Ī: No, I do not. When you need to explore a tight area, just take your docked vehicle. It’s a Mobile Base meant to grow your food, store materials, craft items, be a carrier for your PRAWN, and be a place to sleep so you can skip time. Also, the Cyclops isn’t some oversized Seamoth. With the Engine Efficiency and Thermal Upgrades, you could drive around forever without needing to go back to base. This also means you don’t need to use the Shields as often, meaning even less power drain. This completely eliminates the need for the insane power drain of Silent Running.

Q: but the Cyclops is so slow, vulnerable, and power hungry! Why would you like using it?Ī: Shutting down the Engine will cause anything aggressive to ignore you. Anything you’ve built inside can be deconstructed, so there’s really no worries. Everything inside can be salvaged, including Upgrades, Power Cells, Locker contents, fruit, etc. Since the only things lost when your Cyclops explodes is your life and docked vehicle, there isn’t much drawback to a death of a Cyclops. On the Bridge of the Cyclops I have a locker that holds the materials for a new Cyclops, and a MVB.

However, I am set to deal with such an unlikely scenario. Q: Aren’t you scared of losing all of that?!Ī: Yes I am. That causes a net loss of power, and will keep your Cyclops at low power. WARNING: Installing Chargers without having the Thermal Upgrade will cause your Power Cells to charge off of your Power Cells.

If you’re struggling with power, check out my notes ( Part 1 & Part 2) on Cyclops power consumption. The benefits of charging more than six Power Cells at once, can sometimes outweigh the drawback of how long it takes to charge everything. Chargers will out drain the power production from the Thermal Upgrade, but this isn’t much of an issue. You need a Cyclops Thermal Reactor Upgrade before you can install any Chargers.

Q: Battery/Power Cell Chargers? Does that even work?Ī: Yes and No. If you have any questions, please feel free to give us a call! We’re open 1hr a week on a randomly selected day and hour, so keep trying if you’ve missed us! You do?! That’s fantastic!! Below you will find our pamphlet. Do you have time to hear the gospel of our Mobile Base and Safe Haven?
