Light Eater
The Light Eater is a new threat lurking in the dungeon, absorbing any electrical source it encounters.
It hunts down lights and drains their energy, gradually plunging the environment into darkness.
Seeking energy
- The Light Eater instinctively moves toward lit light sources, absorbing them to fuel its power.
- If it encounters a light, mine, turret, or any grabbable object with an energy source, it will absorb it before continuing its path.
- After a certain hour (configurable), the Light Eater will target the ship, draining its energy and disabling some functionalities.
- If it detects an energy-based enemy (configurable list), it will prioritize absorbing it—unless it is already pursuing a light source or chasing a player. Once absorbed, the enemy is killed.
- In stormy weather, the Light Eater attracts lightning at irregular intervals (configurable min-max). Each strike charges it further (configurable), making it even more dangerous.
Facing players
- If its charge is sufficient, it triggers a bright explosion that blinds players looking in its direction (like a stun grenade).
- If its charge is incomplete, it will absorb any energy source carried by the player.
- If no energy source is available, it adopts a standard hunting behavior and absorbs lights along its path.
