You can carry it all out of the Cyclops in one dive, one Inventory, along with your Habitat Builder, and have your charging and scanning station up in ~3 min or less. Starter fuel = 2 fish, preferably Peeper, Reginald, or (much the best) Oculus Scanner Room (optional) = 5 Ti, 2 Cu, 1 Au, 1 Table Coral Power Cell Charger = 2 Ti, 2 Ruby, 1 Adv Wiring Kit (You can substitute a Nuclear Reactor - same space requirement) It is intended to support anything you want to do, for as long as you want to do it, you prepare everything to the final advanced resource form, all the parts for a temp camp for any depth will fit into a single Wall Locker.īioreactor = 3 Ti, 1 Wiring Kit, 1 Lubricant With the engine efficiency module, I have been on missions away from my home base for multiple game weeks, and barely reached 50% energy expenditure. If you want to, you can even even put a moonpool kit in a cabinet - build it when you need to modify the PRAWN or Seamoth some more.

Put a portable Recharger camp, with a bioreactor or a nuc in the kit, in another cabinet - build it when you need it. Put a portable Scanner Room camp in a cabinet - build it when you need it. It can be fitted out with a farm, a bed, a fabricator, a mod station, a thermal reactor, an energy efficiency module, and enough storage (several thousand units) that you never have to return to.anywhere.

They ignore it, and they ignore you in it. It is complete protection from Warpers. With care and timing, you can use it to slip by every dangerous point in the game, even without Silent Running and the Shield Generator. With the engine off, it is invisible to all creatures (except, perhaps, in a limited way, crabsquids).

It is immensely useful, possibly the single most important piece of equipment in the game. Those same people probably run the thing on flank speed (the middle one) all the time and burn down their Power Cells unnecessarily. Only people who talk about how useless the Cyclops is are the impatient types who want to 'beat' the game as quickly as possible.
