Despite its popularity on the news, no one is willing to sail the Europan waters in this 'thing' - which is a perfect opportunity for you.'

It is a modded feature on the submarine, and includes:

Mouth: Thalamus must be regularly fed, as such you may either feed it corpses or attract enemies right inside of its mouth.


Heart: Beating so strong, you can feel its heartbeat anywhere on the submarine. Based on Thalamus's hunger, different afflictions will be applied as indication.

Afflictions: Different stages of Thalamus's hunger are indicated by afflictions.
First 'Hungry' stage indicating that it is very hungry, to the point most machinery is working less efficiently, and some are completely disabled. Includes debuffs for humans.
Second 'Fed' stage indicating it has been fed enough to keep the machinery working.
Third and last 'Peace' stage, indicating that it has been completely appeased. Aside from all machinery working, humans may also experience an overwhelming sense of tranquility, slightly increasing their focus and combat capabilities.

Meat Lung: Thalamus has a lung-like organ growing outside, which can cause sound waves and stun everything nearby. Using it too much will render thalamus hungry.

Double Coilgun: If Thalamus is properly fed, it will operate Double Coilgun and fight off monsters. It will not consume power from the power grid, however it will consume ammo as normal.

Other Machinery: If Thalamus is properly fed, most machinery will work more efficiently than usual. Some machinery, such as fabricator and deconstructor, will work only when Thalamus is fed.
