Drill Core The Machine World

Drill Core The Machine World adds the Tech Biome, a mine built from compacted machinery and discarded drones, along with new hazards, enemies, a core and buildings.

The Tech Biome

These planets have been stripped of soil and their natural cores. Artificial generators buried beneath layers of machinery power them, while valuable minerals remain available to mine. Teleporters can send your crew and blocks to distant parts of the mine. Copy Blocks duplicate nearby blocks, including Short Circuits that can stun and damage your crew.

At night, the Mechanical Terrabore roams the mine. Robots also swarm in through the mine entrance to attack your platform and shut down your drilling operation. Each robot has a teleportation device and can rapidly close in on your core once its health falls below half. Their leader, the Overseer, is the Tech Biome’s defender.

The Monolith Core

You can collect three fragments of the legendary Monolith Core and install the complete core on your platform. Its teleportation technology sends away nearby enemies, while its scanner reveals all ore in the mine for a short time each morning.

New buildings

The biome adds buildings and turrets developed through reverse-engineering robotic technology:

• Pathfinder Hub: deploys a scout drone that selects a block hidden by the fog of war, flies to it and reveals the fog around it for several blocks. It changes position from time to time and operates only during the day. Each Pathfinder Hub works independently.
• Overclock Hub: deploys a drone that speeds up random buildings during the day and random turrets at night. Each Overclock Hub works independently.
• Pyro-Drone Turret: deploys combat drones that set enemies on fire.
• Drain Drone Turret: deploys combat drones that weaken enemies.
• Stasis Drone Turret: deploys combat drones that stun enemies.
