How to access Crustaceans
Hey, buddy. How do I access crustaceans. It says the update 1.0 Crustaceans is out but I'm unsure how to get access to them. I don't see them in creative mode and I can't really tell if I unlock them from the life point system since my ecosystem isn't generating any more and I've been stuck at 0. Curious on how to access them. Thanks, bud.

Is your game updated to the latest version? Crustaceans should be available in creative mode and should be unlockable in normal gameplay via life points
Life points shouldn't stop generating either. Would you mind sending us the save file so we can have a look at it? My email is hei.man.chan@slugdisco.com
You can find the save file at C:\Users\Username\Documents\Ecosystem

Thank you, it's not really a big deal to me with the life points, I think it's because all my edible plants are gone because the foragers bred too much. I just didn't have enough life points to cull out some species at the time so I was stuck. I'll keep playing until I get to the crustaceans. If having access to the files helps you with the game then I'll give it to you.

The link may work, I don't know how to use Google Drive too well.

In Game Mode, you normally have to unlock the crabs similar to the other species types like Whale and Squid using Life Points as you progress. However, there are a few ways you can bypass this requirement and get straight to testing out the new crabs :-)

There are 2 Alternatives to bypass the normal Game Mode progression:

1. Game Mode - Helper Commands:
In Game Mode, unlock all food and species items and/or get free Life Points (and more) using Helper Commands.
Section [Helper Commands - Special Abilities] in the Ecosystem Steam Guide

2. Creative Mode:
In Creative Mode, you start the game with everything unlocked. There are no Life Points and everything is free (placing food and spawning creatures). Food does not seed/spread. When eaten, food items re-spawn in the same location after a cooldown. Other Game restrictions do not exist as it relates to score and Ecosystem Health needed to spawn species.

You may also be able to spawn in a saved crab if you already had one saved.
