BD-1 Terrarium Management
The Terrarium on board the Mantis serves as a unique hub for cultivating a variety of plant life discovered throughout Cal Kestis's journey. Managed by BD-1, this feature allows players to collect seeds from different planets and grow them in the ship's hydroponic system. Successfully cultivating these plants not only adds a touch of life to the Mantis but also unlocks cosmetic rewards and contributes to the game's completion percentage.
Throughout Cal's exploration of various planets, players will encounter unique flora. BD-1's scanner can be used to collect seeds from these plants. Once collected, these seeds can be planted in the Terrarium. The Terrarium itself is located in a dedicated section of the Mantis, and You can interact with it to view their collection and manage their plants. BD-1 will oversee the growth process, and over time, the plants will mature.
Each type of plant requires specific conditions or time to grow, and as they mature, they will offer rewards. These rewards typically include cosmetic items such as new poncho dess for Cal, different paint jobs for the Mantis, or unique visual elements for the Terrarium itself. The Terrarium management aspect encourages players to explore thoroughly and interact with the game's diverse ecosystems, rewarding their diligence with aesthetic customization options.
