Is there a way to get rid of bulb bushes?

[Stridswombat]

I'm building a base and there's a really annoying inconveniently located large bulb bush and I can't find a way to get rid of it. I was able to get rid of the giant ones by hitting them with my knife but this one doesn't seem to want to go away.

Is there no way to get rid of the large bushes?

knife it till it dies.

I tried that but it stays. The giant one dissapeared after it stopped giving samples but this one stays.

Is it a pygmy one? Cus that should've worked. There used to be a problem with those in the old days.

You could also try the console dig command near it. Then build your base. Not sure what would happen after the terrain resets tho.

Normally if you built into any plant in this game once the base part was completed the plant would "pop" out of existance.
Same tactic worked on reefbacks that were humping your base.

No it's a larger one. I can pick up the small ones with the propulsion cannon.

It's not letting my build over it. It blocks the build.

Dig command then build? Would that work?

"dig 10" in the console. Might want to start with a smaller number than 10 and see how it goes. And be next to the bush.

Though I would have thought the very reason to want to build in the bulb zone was so you could see plants like that out of your window.

It is, but I need the space it's using up. I just need this specific one gone for my layout.

Is there some way to do it without using console commands? I don't normally care much for achievements but I'd still rather not have them disabled if I can avoid it.

Terrain reset and try knifing it again? Doubt it will change anything tho. Gonna have to have someone else weigh in on that tho.

Do you think there's any chance I might be able to get rid of it using the PRAWN suits drill arm or torpedoes?

you should be able to move it using a repulsion cannon

I tried that, didn't budge at all.

Try using a drill arm. If that doesn't work, try two.

If even THAT doesn't work, then give up and quit complaining. You could make a really cool base just going around it, and if you really need space, (which I don't see how you would need that much space. I was able to beat the game 3 times with just 2 rooms and a cyclops) just make it 2-level or 3-level.
