Are there cyclops upgrades that stack?

[Tommyk]

Hi,

the range upgrades in scanner room stack. do others too? like the efficiency upgrade of cyclops? or maybe the heat-power upgrade?

[DeFragged]

None of the Cyclops modules stack. Only Storage modules on Seamoths and Prawn suits stack as far as I know. I've not seen Efficiency upgrades stack and I've tried 6 of them. (I may be wrong... but I doubt it)

[Tommyk]

ty for shining some light on it! I was unsure. maybe the upgrades should have a marker "stackable" so people can see that scanner room can have 4 range and cyclops only 1 of each...

You can have up to four Seamoth torpedo-modules as well. The reason why most modules don't stack is frankly either balance or because it'd be redundant to have, say, two sonar-modules or two shield-modules.

ye, but in scannerroom they stack AND enhance range! Same could be in cyclops engine efficiency. And I would not mind a sho-away-the-battery-leachers upgrade for my cyclops

btw, formerly the engine display showed total battery charge in cyclops. now its gone. only shows upgrade that are installed..

I miss that energy dispay in the cyclops engine room. The % at helm is misleading if you don't have all the powercell slots filled. I would love to have that back!

The shield removes the leeches

ty, Taconter, did not know. I hate those little buggers, shield it is for me then

One thing do stack: the hull reinforcement module

Yet again this thing is hardly useful since it only protects you from terrain collision

[Tommyk]

What? Only protects from terrain collisions?

So it is useless in cyclops or moth or prawn? Or all of them if I am not a bad driver/diver?

[DeFragged]

Useless on Prawn since it takes no collision damage. Cyclops only if you're a terrible driver. Seamoth is the one that benefits most from the mod, since it's made of paper and even a light nudge damages it. Even when running into fish.

No need to worry, I finished the game without dying without using any hull upgrades. As long as you don't hang around the big baddies and keep moving, they hit you once then lose interest. Goldfish memory :).

TYVM DeFragged and neofit for explaining! I did not know that!
