And the turret is to keep it from spreading towards us.
i was asking because we could use the tiberuim as some sort of renewable materiel.
It merely leeches materials out of what it converts, making it easy to harvest.

hmm weird i remember reading about one civilization that could build armies on tiberuim and never run out of materials as long as they waited for the tiberuim to regrow.

Like I said, it requires something to grow FROM.
the seasons are already changing and the foyer isn't even done yet?!
Put half of the Paladins on the walls and the other on the countyard.

so you're getting rid of the tiberuim chasm?

Hell no, it reaches down for miles, impossible to completely clear.

then technically it has something to grow from, the chasm it came from.

This stuff is tunneling for the planetary core. One day we WILL have to leave this world.
Nice job, dipshit, giving them intel about the Settler and humans, you realise these things can murder your face it really quickly. Right?

It will take a couple years but yeah.
Oh and this stuff evolves over time, becoming faster at what it does.
It seems to have a form of hive mind intelligence...
We may have to weigh the ethical concerns on killing life with potentially sapient level intelligence.

If it takes over the planet core, it may solidify it, cancelling the magnetic field out, and letting us roast.

"Which is exactly why I'm going to try and get rid of it all. If I can finish this world regenerator device that we've clearly needed running again for quite some time now, I can try spiking it with enough power to completely regenerate any unnatural changes that were caused since it went down."
