Summary

Hazardous Flora is a plant that reacts to the presence of the player. They do not show up on planetary scans but they can be scanned with Analysis Visor and will be indicated with icon.

Carnivorous Flora

It is known for its whipping, poisonous attack. It is classified as flora and will show up in the discoveries.

They are scattered abundantly on planet surfaces where flora is present and have an attack range of about two meters. Damage will occur to the player whether they are on foot or inside an Exocraft vehicle. They provide Carbon when destroyed with the Multi-tool, but remain unharmed if driven over. Destroying them doesn't appear to alert sentinels. They can be seen easily by their glowing pattern that appears on your display.

Cave variant

It is known for its pulsating, poisonous attack. It is not classified as flora.

They can be found in caves and various resources (Oxygen, Sodium) can be harvested from them, but it requires close proximity to do it.
