Flying creatures appear way too often

Is there something I can use to limit or stop this? I'm trying to build my base damnit

Docking your ship should prevent them(little anchor on helm)

So that's it? Just can't move? There's no bait or anything I can use to keep them away?

Alright, thanks :(

You get an automatic deck collector later. Works (kind of) like a self-defense turret.

unfortunately you will end up with more synthetics than you know what to do with!

A defense item, like an electric field generator, would be nice. would also be nice if they fixed fact that if you shoot down the creature by extracting the debris on it, it still attaches and damages your stuff.

build your ship around your motors, water collection and moth catcher.
Think of a square building with a deck plate courtyard in the center.
They will not attack the inside of the ship courtyard.
when you need to use the deck extender you will have to build a platform on the outside of the building to access a POI with the extender, remove when done.

For when you're building this is the easiest way.
On the move, there are some good suggestions above, which I also use. I personally love the deck extractor as well.

If you build while anchored, they won't appear ... at least I did not notice them once when anchored. If you hover a bit above the ground ... wait patiently for the message (that they will attack your ship) ... and then anchor again ... they are gone! The garden platforms are very big! use this to build your airship!!!
