A big animal that travels between the ship and the exits at a slow speed. You can jump on it and drop and store scrap on top of it just like the Company Cruiser.
Would be a perfect fit for big custom moons made for driving the CC as a backup plan or when you don't have a car. Would offer some protection from small and medium sized outdoor entities but not robots/giants.

You could add a entity or obstacle like the Vain shroud near the Ship's Ai nodes and the Entrances Ai nodes that this big creature would graze on and linger around for a while, giving you time to load on/off scrap. This also gives a convenient excuse for why the creature migrates between these spots on its own.

As for designs they need to be climbable- at least in the grazing state or at all times. It would be nice if they where goofy-aah designed like other things in LC but here are some real-life bodytypes that would fit.

Humpback-(space)whale grazing on floating schools of fish
Giant tortoise grazing on some foilage or alien fruit
Giant Wyrm worm dragon or Snake, Giraffe, Brontosaurus
.... or whatever creative thing you can come up with!
Alternatively it could Fly or not be accessible to climb during transit (giraffe,brontosaurus,dragon,giant eagles)
You could balance this by making it faster but do less trips. Some player action/item triggers it's migration?

Why not belt from satisfactory, you setup a line and you can put item on it that travel at low speed

that doesn't sound like something our humble employees are capable of, while hitchhiking on local fauna and occasionally, being snacked on by loca fauna, does

This is actually cool

If i were to take the concept of your mod and try to make it thematically fit lethal company, with the smallest effor possible, I would make an item that could entice baboonhawks to change their nest to the spot where you used said item.

Also Bruce loves pickles

#

thats canon

#

but he doesnt have any interactions with pickled jars

#

yet

#

would be funny

#

Personally I think that's too OP but it is definitely going to be fun

#

his bloodlust needs to take priority over his pickle lust to make for fun moments

#

@tawdry wharf when your teammate rolls up with bruce but you're missing health

#

code rebirth have it too lmao

I would love it if some half life creatures like the manta ray things could be turned into a transportation creature. Particularly for something like the xen moon.

#

Like the idea

Hear me out, à robot thing That are very slow and automatically take one item by one item and bring them back to the ship (in one Day it can bring Back like 10 items) and its à ship upgrade
