The wiki “Creatures” page lists 45.

Drops

Remains become Alien Protein in a Constructor (1 → 1) after the MAM research “Alien Megafauna”. Remains are no longer fuel since 1.0.

Respawn

Hatchers respawn since 1.0 (3 in-game days, no player within 150 m).

Prevent respawns with at least one powered building within 150 m of the spawner (belts, pipes, power lines, hypertubes and poles do not count) and kill the creatures present – see Combat & respawn.

Behaviour

  • On first aggro a Hatcher releases 3 Flying Crabs (Elite: 6), then 1–2 (Elite: 3) every 5 s and on every hit. Crabs die on impact or after 60 s.
  • The Boom Box “Turbo Bass” (1 damage, 60 m) kills crabs instantly but not the Hatcher. Hatchers respawn since 1.0.
