Hi, i am a newbie to this game, so when i started the game, i researched all the maririal stuff, not my defences, and the biter-bases have grown bigger around my base. so i was wondering, is there a way to remove the bases, or toggle godmode (and still carry a gun), or something to stop them from respawning, cuz they keep destroying all my stuff

(I am playing in freeplay )

if you shoot the spawners they won't respawn. But they will keep attacking you normal (unless you set it to "relaxed game mode") where they don't attack, ever .. unless you start a fight with them.

create a wall, get some laser turrets (they only cost electric) , after you get a shotgun, piercing bullets and around 3-4 updates on shootspeed/attack you schould be fine taking out bigger spawn camps.
for the small (3-10) camps usually you schould be fine with create a defense -> run in enemy base shoot it 2-3 times -> run back .. let towers kill critters and run back.


or the realy boring mode, create laser turrets (20+) add a power pole near the enemy camp and instantly place down the 20 turrets. <-- quite the boring version

keep the save, begin a new game. and then a new game. and then another. then come back and play to the end.

You can turn peaceful mode on, open the console and put in

game.peacefulmode = true

Biter spawners will still be there but you won't get attacked unless you provoke them by firing first.

Thanks for the help, but how do i set it to "relaxed mode"?
The game.peacefulmode = true command dosent work for me!

After setting game.peacefulmode = true, you should do game.killallenemies() because some, if not all, existing biters will still not be on peaceful mode.

Thanks, now it works
