Pacu Morphs

Introducing the Pacu Morphs Mod for Oxygen Not Included

The vast and challenging world of Oxygen Not Included is always ripe for new discoveries, and the Pacu Morphs mod introduces some fascinating new aquatic life to your asteroid colonies. This mod expands the humble pacu into three distinct new variants, each offering unique benefits and challenges for intrepid duplicant engineers.

Meet the New Pacu Variants

Prepare to welcome the Beta Pacu, Kelp Pacu, and Plated Pacu into your underwater biomes. Each of these creatures has specific acquisition methods and dietary needs, making their integration into your systems a strategic endeavor.

Beta Pacu

The Beta Pacu offers a significant boost to your colony’s aesthetics and resource management. While sharing the same dietary requirements as the standard pacu, this variant boasts a high decor value. More importantly, it passively converts saltwater into fresh water, providing a sustainable source of this vital liquid. You’ll find Beta Pacus with higher frequency in warmer aquatic environments.

Kelp Pacu

For those looking to bolster their algae production, the Kelp Pacu is an excellent addition. This morph thrives on fertilizer and phosphorite, readily available resources in most established colonies. In return for their sustenance, Kelp Pacus diligently produce algae, a crucial resource for many early and mid-game technologies. These can be found with increased chances in warmer waters, often originating from tropical pacus.

Plated Pacu

The Plated Pacu is a true gem for any duplicant focused on advanced metallurgy. These discerning creatures have a unique diet consisting of various ores, including copper, aluminum, lead, and even regolith. Their true value lies in their remarkable transformation abilities.

Key benefits of the Plated Pacu include:

• Copper ore converted into valuable Gold Amalgam.
• Aluminum ore transformed into usable Iron.
• Lead processed into Wolframite.
• Regolith refined into Salt.
• Various other refined metals can also be processed.

The Plated Pacu can be acquired from gulp fish in cooler water temperatures, making them a more specialized find.

Integrating these new Pacu Morphs into your Oxygen Not Included gameplay can unlock new strategies for resource generation, decor improvement, and even advanced material processing. Experiment with their unique needs and benefits to optimize your duplicants’ survival and prosperity on the harsh asteroid.
