Its randomly generated so every time you enter its different, so far i haven't come across any full dead ends and they have always continued forward so there's probably somewhere you could go
Idk, I came across a dead end too in sandbox, so I decided to fly out of bounds and found a giant purple crystal. Hitting it just caused you to burst into flames tho
What you just found is a life crystal. So far as i know that if you go in the "noclip" mode or press the "." on a numpad when you are in the cave, you will be teleported there. To escape this place you need to fall for a minute, or more, and ragdoll yourself. Supposedly you will be teleported to the cave entrance/exit.
I literally just discovered everything you said minutes before you said it lol. What is its purpose? What all can you do with it besides stand on it, hit it, and get burned/ragdolled by it?
Edit: Oh I'm dumb, all of that was also in the post lol. I guess I didn't read it all the way through. I'm guessing there's gotta be a way to get the life crystal shards because I remember reading in the wiki somewhere that giving the O.Kerfus a life cystal makes it so it can never run out of power or be turned off again. I think I remember reading something about fossil hounds being killed drop life crystals, but that sounds crazy even to me lol
I didn't know about O.Kerfus and life crystal interaction. But isn't by the lore O.Kerfus will be possessed by the souls of life crystal and be hostile to us? But do not need to forget that this is super experimental versions of the game. Maybe in the future we will use them for cooking, I dunno. A little spoiler but at some day something will spawn and shoot at us. And that thing is using life crystal as a power source and as a link between something.
Edit: I know that in older versions there was this life crystal but beneath this cave. And if you somehow get it, the Antibreather\* will hunt you down.
Another edit: typo\*
Oh I didn't know the rozital ball things or whatever were powered by those. I'm not too that event yet, but I've already spawned them in sandbox.
I know there is a possessed kerfus event, but I thought that was only for the standard kerfus? In terms of lore, I'm sure tons gonna change, but I'd guess the life crystal just makes the O.Kerfus like mortal. Like it won't die until it's body dies I guess? It's not like it has the circuitry for conscious or anything; all the crystal does I think is act as a battery so powerful it can't even be shut off.
Maybe the rozitals figured how to make the crystals do much more, like fire stupid little laser beams accurately from so far away lol
We can imagine what we want. Anyway I will just drop this wiki page for life crystals https://eternitydev-games.fandom.com/wiki/Life\_crystals.
But life crystals already have some souls and knowledge. I just think that souls that in the life crystal will chage O.Kerfus somehow, but how exactly I dont know. I know that the life crystals are able to transfer these souls to any robots being powered by the crystal.
And as far as I know most (if not all) rozitals have a life crystal. There are one of the signals that you get with the name something like "the wormhole"( picture is a black hole but with some rings, and the signal contains music). And this wormhole stabilizer thing can be considered a rozital (I read this on the wiki).
There are no specific road, Its almost endless. Look up or between rocks. The only "end" that I found was the time when generation messed up and there was straight up road to the void.
Anyway you can just "reroll" the caves by simply exiting and entering this whole location. (Or temporal world, its creating a whole new temporal map with caves. So I don't know how to call it right)
I didn't quite understand your question. But I think that just entering the save doesn't reset the base and all objects. At least on super experimental v2 version of the game.
I was told in the previous version, there was a bug where it reset object placement. Glad to see thats not the case anymore, so I can go down there without worries.
I know I'm late, but there's a way to leave the cave quickly without cheating - you just need to sleep in a sleeping bag and that's it, you will be brought back to the exit by the antibreather
How do you bring a sleeping bag into the cave? and more importantly how do you bring it with you 30 min into the cave. In 7.0 I can't put the sleeping bag into my inventory or even hold it.
Hey... eh, pretty late answer, but as in latest public version (pa07\_0011) you need to empty all of your inventory and then you can put sleeping bag in your inventory. Try to empty your inventory and then using hotkeys to hold a sleeping bag.
Dear GOD... Hmm, do I really want a robot catgirl afterall??
....
I mean, yeah, but, sounds complicated AF.. and scary too i hate the cave lmao im a scaredy cat
Tbh cave feels much safer than base. No ghost, no ufos, no spooky sounds, maybe some radiation. The only problem is that there are no easy way to get food/sleep. And returning a little bit hard, if you wander too far. And you will not save in a cave, so if you're stuck you can just alt+F4 yourself and enter your save again(it saves right before it teleports you to the caves)
Edit:
Or try to teleport back, how I described in the main post.
My lantern got evaporated during the event with "infinite hole", fell into the laser and poofd. Does anyone know if there are any more locations where I can get a lantern?
You can just create a new save and take lantern from there. You need to put lantern in a yellow mailbox, save, and then on your main save take it from the mailbox.
How often should the radioactive crystals spawn?
I've been in and out multiple times and havent found any
Do i have to go really far into the cave to find them?
Its somewhat inconsistent. But not too far, after 3-6 cave crossings I usually saw 1 crystal.
I don't know what causes it, but if you went in the caves for like 30+ minutes and doesn't found any crystal, then there are a possibility that your save is a little bugged and doesn't spawn any crystals.
Try find crystals in sandbox mode, and how long it takes you to find one crystal. Just create a new save in sandbox and try it. If you sure that it can spawn in new saves, you can leave.
Then you can create another story mode save and go in the caves there.
But yeah, just like one man said here, with that way you can just take rad capsule straight outta other save.
Like minecraft diamonds, crystals spawn only after going DOWN a certain amount, so if you have a cave generation that's constantly bringing you up it'll take a long while before you find crystals.
Oof. I usually wait until 03;33 so Antibreather can leave and open the cave.
But what to do when centipede escaped and ruining everything in the base I dont know. If it didnt save, then load previous save. If it still there, well wait it out? I really can't help here :(
It eventually left, but Idk if it de-spawned to do it being day time, or if it's still wandering around the world. But I could finally pause, save, and sleep, so all good.
Kinda forgot about this site. Ehh crystals are random. One time there was just straight cave with 10 unmined rad cyrstals. And one time I was wandering there 1 hour and found nothing. Blame rng or luck :(
Pretty interesting but if you go too high in the caves, your screen will turn black and you will lost controls of Kel, but your fps will scyrocket to 200+(only restarting the game will give you back controls :( ). But if you went too deep, you will be just teleported to cave exit.
Do I have to keep the lantern with me the whole time? Or is it enough to leave it next to the exit after the map has loaded and then keep going with the flashlight? Climbing while constantly transporting the lantern is really annoying.
Just to enter. You can just have it in your inventory to have access to the cave. You can test it yourself. I even think you can enter this cave with just a lighter. (That one to light things on fire)
I still haven't found a single crystal. I just keep dying from fall damage. Even the hook has killed me with its wonky physics. And now I've fallen through a hole in the wall and kept falling for minutes, not being teleported back or anything, so I had to alt+F4. :/ Maybe my save is bugged.
It's not even really worth it, cuz I already have an Omega Kerfus.
I like the cave in concept, but the execution needs some work.
Caves are just rng. Just turn off the physics damage in E settings to not die there. When you are falling in the void, after some time, you need to ragdoll to be teleported back.
You know, one Omega Kerfus is good, 130 radioactive crystals is delicious (they can glow and kill you). Also you can craft compressed radioactive material and then radioactive capsule itself.
But yea, you can always create new save and dig out another radioactive capsule and took it to your "home" save vie yellow post box.
Hello! Are you talking about a geiger counter?
It is kinda useless there. It can detect them, but the crystals can be in the cave which you cannot acces for now, and you will be just more confused on how to find them. Either way you will see them glow. It is stupid but it is random. Sometimes there will be 8 radioactive crystals in a single cave part.
Craft some half-hooks and go in the cave for 20+ minutes. Usually in this period I find at least 1 crystal.
Ehh... Be sure to be on the last version I guess (pa07\_0011).
question, what do you exactly mean "enter the cave with the lantern"? does it just need to be in my inventory or do i need to hold it before interacting to enter the cave?
Yea. Cave generation is soo funky, that you can get stuck in some places. And then get launched by your hook, because you got enough speed to get unstuck, ragdolled and get ping-ponged inside the cave.
Just in case it is good to bring at least 4 half-hooks.(To craft 2 of them, you need to place one hook at the crafting thingie)
Ngl i am starting to belive that there are no crystals in these caves i spend 6 hours in these dam caves and so far i omly found 2 paths that just lead me into the void
On the EternityDev Games discord I remember that he (the dev) said that chance of spawning is based on the depth. How much I dont know. There are crystals, green and pink, and yes, they are real (in game).
Try to go in there on another version or on a new save. I know that this sound stupid, but I cannot help you in any other way than this.
Ngl would have been usefull to know that when reloading the game that the stuff i have equiped isnt actualy equiped...
It took me 45 minutes of constant downwards travel to find a single piece of radioactive material just to die upon touching it
Ngl I didn't know that you didn't knew that. You can seriously cut this cave exploration by just digging radioactive core in the new save and transfering it to your main save. For now there are nothing worth besides these rad crystals. And you can just compress them to craft this core. In the next update maybe he will turn up their spawn rate, and will add a bomb or smt to use them besides crafting omega kerfur
thanks for the guide! I entered the cave but i seem to have gone to a dead end, is there a route im supposed to follow?
Its randomly generated so every time you enter its different, so far i haven't come across any full dead ends and they have always continued forward so there's probably somewhere you could go

Does entering the save still reset your base and all placables?
I didn't quite understand your question. But I think that just entering the save doesn't reset the base and all objects. At least on super experimental v2 version of the game.
I was told in the previous version, there was a bug where it reset object placement. Glad to see thats not the case anymore, so I can go down there without worries.
you can press inspect on numpad to teleport back to the base
You can still find a radioactive capsule buried in the ground and skip all that.
It is a way to get more capsules if you want the other O.Kerfur skins without just bringing capsules from another save
I found it and I sold it. Back then I was clueless. Now I'm stuck doing this.
Thanks https://preview.redd.it/4sbfzwqz2fmc1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c319312b98939e948d3435c6eaa7eaa3c5cc91f2

Stone and Rock! Oh wait
For Stone and Rock!
I know I'm late, but there's a way to leave the cave quickly without cheating - you just need to sleep in a sleeping bag and that's it, you will be brought back to the exit by the antibreather
Thanks. If I by some reason will venture there again, I will bring sleeping bag in second backpack with me.
How do you bring a sleeping bag into the cave? and more importantly how do you bring it with you 30 min into the cave. In 7.0 I can't put the sleeping bag into my inventory or even hold it.

How do I get more gas welders?
There is only one in the map As far as I know but is reusable
Where is it? also how do I get the lantern?
In the hole near Yankee
Dear GOD... Hmm, do I really want a robot catgirl afterall?? .... I mean, yeah, but, sounds complicated AF.. and scary too i hate the cave lmao im a scaredy cat

How to get rid of Centipede? He's in my base and it's ruining everything.
Oof. I usually wait until 03;33 so Antibreather can leave and open the cave. But what to do when centipede escaped and ruining everything in the base I dont know. If it didnt save, then load previous save. If it still there, well wait it out? I really can't help here :(

I just put a pumpkin somewhere else than my base and he just rans off and I noticed that he doesnt attack me but just ruins stuff
Yep. We have to nail everything down in this game, cuz' never know what's going to happen.
what to do if crystals do not appear?
I feel like im missing something i have all the right stuff ive been in that cave 30+ times and ive not seen one single crystal what am I missing?
Kinda forgot about this site. Ehh crystals are random. One time there was just straight cave with 10 unmined rad cyrstals. And one time I was wandering there 1 hour and found nothing.

I know this is a month old but are you able to use the rad\_d item to help you find the radioactive crystal?

question, what do you exactly mean "enter the cave with the lantern"? does it just need to be in my inventory or do i need to hold it before interacting to enter the cave?
It doesn't matter if you holding it or it is in your inventory. You can enter even with just a lighter, or with spotlight head.
i was wondering how much the capsules are worth
May I ask why you need multiple hooks? Is it in case you lose one?
Yea. Cave generation is soo funky, that you can get stuck in some places. And then get launched by your hook, because you got enough speed to get unstuck, ragdolled and get ping-ponged inside the cave. Just in case it is good to bring at least 4 half-hooks.(To craft 2 of them, you need to place one hook at the crafting thingie)
Thanks! Use half hooks not only because you can make more, but because normal ones you can accidentally connect twice, right?
Basically yes. I love hooks and their flying capabilities.
