Quality Biter Eggs
Posted: Tue Nov 19, 2024 7:45 pm
I suggest adding a direct method of producing quality biter eggs. Currently the only way to do this is by recycling normal eggs using quality modules.
Quality biter eggs are an important item for crafting quality Biolabs and Prod Module 3s. For most items that you want quality on there are multiple good ways of getting there. For Iron, you could recycle iron gears, iron plates, or set up quality iron ore mining on Nauvis, do it for free on Vulc, etc.
Possible ideas:
1. Allow placement of quality modules in captive biter spawners. I don't love this idea because the player could lose the modules if the spawner runs out of bioflux, and it doesn't seem like this would work well with the one slot "inventory" of the spawner.
2. Allow Quality captive biter spawners to produce quality eggs, maybe if they are given quality bioflux? This could be a bit tricky if the player uses quality modules to produce the CBS, and then realizes they need X quality bioflux. Might need some tinkering but this seems like the best approach. Right now getting high-quality ingredients for CBSs just isn't worthwhile.
