Cyclops and other vessels Energy Leechers

At the moment the cyclops is a little OP and safe if you don't count the depth damage. I know you'll be implementing new creatures in the future, hopefully, some very massive, but i just remembered of the Matrix movies and the sentinels. It would be nice to have an extra danger of smaller high depth swarm creatures that would suck the energy out of the vessels, leading to a complete replacement of power cells and circuit board repairs.

I think they are considering adding an additional level of difficulties to the vehicles by limiting their oxygen amount https://trello.com/c/f0gwktVZ/279-making-cyclops-relevant

This would also be cool, the sub could give a warning when power drain is detected and bellow a set amount, like "Warning Power Drain Detected, Power levels now bellow 20%" , players who watch their power will notice quicker than those who don't

You then swim out and stab stab stab to get them all off your ship, they could be like floaters that suck power, those things are attracted to subs for those that have not been unlucky enough to sail past one floating they seek into you and stick on lol..

I was literally thinking about this while playing today, either that or some sort of weather effect that causes power outages for the duration such as magnetic storms
