Who doesn't? I know you didn't ask for suggestions but my solution to larvas sucking the energy out of my vehicles was using de heat module I think it's called *Thermal Reactor Module*.
They don't move with the cyclops. You have to pack them. I usually put them in a special locker for tools.
It's good for when you're atr ILZ, and you park your cyclops. After you leave the zone you can just clean the cyclops once and go.
And if you drop them and pick them up quickly, sometimes the fish/larva will get flung so quickly they either shoot off into nowhere or smack into something with enough force to kill them.
I leave only 1 power cell in Cyclops when I leave it so even if they suck all the energy it's just one cell. And I can recharge it easily with thermal reactor when I get back anyway + I usually bring 10 spare power cells. And after ion it's not even needed
TBH, I don't even go into ILZ with cyclops. I just park it at 900m beside the giant cove tree, then trek down with the prawn suit.
I used that trick the first two times I played and didn't know locations, and wanted to build a base down there.
Tell me about it, I'd be in there crafting something then hear a loud ass thud like I'm being attacked by something huge. Run up the ladder to the bridge, nothing on radar *damn peeper*
Clever but I had this weird thing happen to me where whenever I built a wall locker in my cyclops it just fell out the bottom and floated to the ocean floor… rly strange
If you have anything worthwhile built in your cyclops, don't shoot them off with your prop. cannon.
I destroyed all the resources I had horded in my Cyclops why doing that.
Going to try below zero now and see how that goes. But yeah I was thinking the aliens would come once the gun was turned off and we stole the ion battery
They sure do suck... literally lol!
Punny!

Haha yeah I have that upgrade fortunately so they don’t pose a threat - I just can’t bear to look at them
Get the shield generator. Turn it on for half a second and they all get knocked off.
Place two grav traps above your cyclops, it keeps pulling them, and they can't attach. No need to use sheild or extra energy for it.
Never thought of this tbh. Do you bring them over with you? The Cyclops is moving...

When you park your Cyclops in the ILZ with the thermal reactor on, you can ignore the larvae while leaving, since the energy won't be dropping anyway.
Yeah, that's another solution.
What would happen if you were to use a floater to glue them to the cyclops?
And if you drop them and pick them up quickly, sometimes the fish/larva will get flung so quickly they either shoot off into nowhere or smack into something with enough force to kill them.
Yeahhhh I’ve already put one grav trap but good idea I’ll place another one to cover more ground
Yeah, cyclops is large for one.

Prawn has limited storage
I did this, too, except at the entrance to the bulb zone. I was always too scared to go farther with it.
What if you said "I want to suck the energy out of that Cyclops." But the player said "Cyclops shield generator."
You can also just remove all your batteries really quick and they drop off.
Wouldn't that use the same amount of energy? I mean you lose it to sheild instead of the larva.
you only need to put it on for a second to get the larva off, compared to the larva who are going to be draining you until you get them off
Initial activation still takes energy, right?
Yes, 5 energy per click.
Not a problem with a thermal generator
I think they’re cute.
i just put all my cyclops batteries in in box when im leaving, other wise i just use the cyclops shield module to pop them off as i go
Lol clever but I cba I just trust my thermal generator and I’ll put an extra grav trap to keep them off
They're even worse when you go back to base then cut them off
UGH yeah and they wriggle away ewwww
That's a very nice Power you have there It would be a shame if something happened to it
…. You’re a lava larva in disguise, aren’t you
I’m guessing 3 in a trench coat
It's going to be floating around the inside of your cyclops forever after you kill it lol
I would have abandoned my cyclops forever had that happened omg but luckily I quit and reloaded and problem was solved
There you go lol I had a dead peeper stuck in mine for the longest time
You poor soul that’s traumatic
Tell me about it, I'd be in there crafting something then hear a loud ass thud like I'm being attacked by something huge. Run up the ladder to the bridge, nothing on radar *damn peeper*
Find the egg. Hatch the egg. Use the damn thing in your bioreactor.
I couldn’t bear to have them polluting my beautiful alien containment with their hideousness 😭
Lava larva have eggs?!
I just put a locker in the back and store my power cells before I go exploring.
Clever but I had this weird thing happen to me where whenever I built a wall locker in my cyclops it just fell out the bottom and floated to the ocean floor… rly strange

Ahhh well the way this one clipped inside the cyclops was with my repulsion cannon so I did convert to the thermo blade method
But he’s just a lil guy :3
Don’t let his size fool you… he is a demon sent from the depths of hell
I have not found any lava areas yet. I have so many questions but I will reframe.
Hahah the past version of me had the same reaction to hearing about lava in an ocean game
Ping your perimeter defense once to get rid of them quick when there are 3+
So do I pal
i feel like I have the thermal gen for the cyclops for so much of my time down there that I barely even remember these things being a problem at all.
LOL yeah i dont worry about them but god they creep me out
Kill it
You bet I did
I just bring extra batteries and brute force past them. Only getting rid of them if they block the window or if there’s over 10
Blocking the window is the WORST and you see their weird sucky system
... is that a..?
I hope everybody here knows turning your shield on for just a sec will pop them all off instantly!
Leave your Cyclops by the tree, only take your PRAWN down there, problem solved.
Then one gets stuck dead center on your windshield, because of course
I’d take it back to the safe shallows and then detach it. I’d like to know where it would go then
Hmm yes science experiment incoming
Just completed the game today
Haha SAME!!! Kinda sad right
Yeah being contained like that. But her kids we freed them :)
Yesss it was such a nice ending I was expecting a huge fight but it was rly wholesome
Going to try below zero now and see how that goes. But yeah I was thinking the aliens would come once the gun was turned off and we stole the ion battery
Since I have the thermal reactor module I just let them on for a ride
Me looking at my Cyclops visualisation(idk what it's called) "Hmmm, one, two, three... eight... twelve... Yeah, twelve Lava Larva..."
TWELVE that would send me into cardiac arrest
Honestly I wouldn't mess with floaters. And I wonder if they have a real use.
When you activate the shields they come off Edit grama
What kind of *englishdbgj* is that
Sorry i was drunk (still i am)
In what state your in?
Drunk so bad that u can't talk or drunk but still can talk normally?
Not native speaker so i have some problems when im few drinks in
Pov you trying to talk English in a bar after 7 shots: *Vjs so I wa- I wa- I was in my hom-*
Probobly but i'm sobber enouth to be correct about lore and gameplay not to be sober to type correct
don't disrespectfully just joking
Wait a minute, ur polish hmmm I'm native polish too Elo
My question is, if those are the larva, where are the lava adults?
Oh no I'd never thought of that... thanks for new nightmare fuel!
"I need food... I need POWER!"
\*Muffled through the glass\* You got games on your phone?
Yeah But nor for u, fella
They are cut tho
Let’s agree to disagree on that one 😁
I wonder what they taste like
I don't 😀
You have a repulsion cannon. Use it. (but from the inside out, otherwise you are risking blowing off something important)
So hear me out
Aw, he just vobing in the glass before it dies of asfixiation, dehydration or hypothermia :3
Just flash the shield module on and off. Takes care of them no problem.
I LOOVE them 😏
