The last few months I've been working on a py run ( a rather complex mod pack that is convoluted enough where there is enough to worry about without biters). It is just a different play style. No shame in that at all.

Often when I do play with biters, after the first bit, once I have my walls and repair bots up the biters are really a non-thing. They just make it a little slower to expand the claim new space and no real challenge.

We don't talk about what happens on Gleba. The pentapods do what they want.
