Is there a faster way to move the escape pod?

Bonald

Pushing it manually is so painfully slow. And the current generator doesn't seem to work on it. Any other tricks? If not, then devs please make the speed at which the pod moves when pushed drastically faster. Thanks

This game needs rope, tow that sucker out to ... Wherever you want

I've pushed my pod back from the void with my seamoth. Was a hard job but faster like push this thing by hands. Now it is swimming over my base surroundet by foundations.

Did you fix the gravity anchor? Sometimes doing that will cause it to move back on its own.

Hey, so what's the current generator supposed to do? I don't think it was...uh...this...
Please correct me if I'm wrong

I`d try ramming it with the Cyclops if I need to move it, by why anyways? Once I got a base set up I only very rarely need to go there, mostly because 4 Filtration mashines suck a bit to much power off of 3-4 Solars and a Biogen.

yomama

Agree with you on that

hit the button on the back of the CGen, then you`ll see. Strangely it doesn`t seem to affect fish.

Ooohhh...a button...thanks for not just telling me, as it happens I'm going to get some game time today...got off work early...a button....

Embarrassed that this is one of the things I haven't bothered with...

xD
No problem, the button is hard to spot. There was a time where they worked instantly as setup, but now you have the option to turn them on/off.

I've always pushed the life pod over to my base just because it serves as a free directional beacon.

Other than that, yeah, not much point in moving it.

Windstriker

I do the same thing and use it for the beacon. I also just like having all my assets in one place. If they don't alow for easy towing should add a self destruct to it or allow it to be scraped.

NamelessChaos

For that I throw out a beacon digged under my base

yomama

So, the current generator...I was thinking electrical current...duh! Very cool item, not sure what it's useful for other than pushing the pod...

NamelessChaos

Once I tried moving fish with it to the Gravity device, building a huge trap with it. Since it didn`t work, never tried again building such trap. What for? Lazy way to get food, was before growing plants was possible.
