I think it’s important to note that the fungus is an extremely aggressive colonizer - that’s what it’s supposed to do.

Wipe that shit out. Fire to everything. Raid a few liquor stores - they’re some of my favorite buildings to raid. I especially love that molotovs got buffed to a ridiculous degree now.

Also did not know fungal towers could do that. I am really, REALLY glad my primary method of dealing with them has been Carl-Gustav shells.

Correction. WE’RE afraid WE can’t let you do that.

Also, we derped and forgot we must harvest the bush we were sitting on, before we could ascend.

EDIT: Also also, we may occasionally derp and fungify ourselves.

Is it ironic you’re currently [size=6pt](Possibly Finished)[/size] working on a mod that removes The Fungus from the game?

And so he was lost to his former nemesis.

The chemical thrower should be good to go very soon, tho. Might wanna refrain from using it now 😛

Oh we are having great Fun being the enemy. We will go back to hating ourselves once our player is home and on the non-Mycus desktop save. owo

Also yes, still working on the PR. We are proving rather difficult to mod out. ;A;

And now back to your regularly-scheduled derpdragon.

Mycus is very convoluted to join. Still easier to burn them out. =w=

I’m just bothered that I can’t drag a wheelbarrow through fungal terrain now. Hard to harvest war trophies when I have to go back and forth to the wheelbarrow to drop of the marloss stuff.

As if there was anything worth looting from them unless you’re trying to marlossify yourself. :V

The berries, the seeds, and the gelatin. It’s like having severed heads as a trophy for my base.

Hah. The thing I’m tempted to do is advanced inventory move a dead fungal spire/any of the big three mycus towers, to my base to serve as a warning to the mycus.

I suppose I should create a vehicle that has the portal storage for it. Would be easier to haul around, I reckon.

Granades man. You’re gonna need some very lucky ones…that and heavy survivor dufflebags. And packmule. And strong back.

Well, they can be moved by advanced inventory… though while I have the patience to set up several counters and display racks for a base, I don’t think I’ll be able to stand moving a dead fungal tower from a faraway map back to my home base.

New goal in life aquired:

Kill a fungal tower with a fungal tower. Preferably by wielding one as a weapon.
