It only eats Sweet Vegetable Cakes, so have a lot of them in order to take care of the Achatina.
More Achatina Utility Tips
After tame, collects up to 100 paste, then organic poly. Leave on wander and come back. ONLY eats veggie cakes even after tame.
Easy way to keep them in place, just fill their inventory with stone. Encumbered, they will not move, even on wander. Then for feeding, put cake in a tough. They will stay in place and alive! Making you resources the whole time... Up to the top for knowledge!
TIPP: Achatinas can produce organic Polymer. You can just craft a fridge with the organic Polymer and destroy it. Every time you destroy a fridge you get normal Polymer back. That means you can transform organic Polymer to normal Polymer. I found it out yesterday by myself.
(It also works with organic Oil)
Pump levels in food if you donβt have much resources to craft more veggie cakes. Tek troughs best to preserve veggie cakes longer.
Canβt recall if pump more levels in weight if it increases the amount of paste and poly it produces.
Turn org poly into normal poly by crafting in into frig or acβs, place frig/ac down and then tear down frig/ac.
Can place in a cage or a small 1x1 pen, it canβt go through fences.
Passive snail paste. Itβs same as cementing paste.
On mobile if it dies, just keep its implant in its inventory. Click on the implant and should give you option to revive without needing revival platform or obelisk. Canβt recall if it saves you from using amber to revive it this way. But this glitch can save from taming a new one.
STOP saying that it drops angler gel, this is only true on mobile. spread the word!
Collect its slime for cementing paste!
Don't make fridges.
Make soap with organic poly and oil in a cooking pot.
Grind the soap in an indy grinder loosing only oil
Used to be always out of cementing paste when I needed them, now I have too much because I have 10 of these guys tamed.
Only eat veggie cakes even when tamed, do t get fooled.
When tamed, the Achatina can produce Achatina paste, an alternative to cementing paste, passively when on wandering. You could also collect it when they are moving, their paste/slime will be on the ground shaped in a similar feces ball.
