Red Alert: Fire detected!
Look out: Aggressive creatures can now damage the Cyclops. They will tear holes in the hull, and if enough damage accumulates, fires will start. Extinguish the fires quickly, or risk losing the boat!
Rig for Silent Running
The Cyclops now has multiple operating modes: Ahead Slow, Ahead Standard, Ahead Flank, and Silent Running. Each represents a different tradeoff between speed travelled and output of light and noise. The noisier and brighter your Cyclops runs, the more likely it is to be attacked by aggressive creatures.
Sonar Contact
Two new sonar modules are available for the Cyclops. First: A Terrain Scanning active sonar that reveals the contours of the sea-bed ahead. Second: A Threat detecting passive sonar that displays the location of hostile creatures around the submarine.
Raise Shields
You are not helpless in the face of creature aggression. Raise shields to temporarily deflect incoming attacks. Deploy decoys to distract aggressive creatures while you pass. And activate the Fire Suppression System to extinguish fires that burn beyond control.
Abandon Ship
A fatally damaged Cyclops will experience hull failure - Killing anyone caught inside. Get off the boat while you still can! Once the wreck settles on the ocean floor, you can swim inside to salvage upgrade modules and equipment.
There's lots more to the Silent Running update. Check out the Silent Running update website to see more!
