A captive biter spawner is a special production building that is initially unlocked on Gleba. It can be "built" by firing a capture bot rocket at a biter spawner on Nauvis, which will slowly transform the spawner into a captive one. A captive spawner will lose health at a rate of 1/second, unless fed with a supply of bioflux. If a captive spawner's health reaches zero, it will transform back into a normal spawner and will have to be captured again. While captured, a spawner will generate biter egg at a rate of 0.5/second. Unlike other spoilable items, a biter egg will only begin to spoil once it has been removed from the spawner.

A captive biter spawner has no module slots, and is unaffected by beacons.

A captive spawner cannot be removed by the player or construction robots, but can be destroyed via weapon fire, at which point it will spawn a small biter.

After reaching Aquilo, the player can craft biter spawners themselves using eggs and uranium-235, which can be manually placed. While in the player's inventory or another container, a captive spawner has a spoilage time of 30 minutes, at which point it will turn into a behemoth biter. Higher quality grades of this crafted biter spawner will increase its crafting time.

Food consumption

Accepts bioflux for food.

Max. consumption: 100kW

Bioflux energy value: 6 MJ

6 MJ / 100 kW = 60 seconds (so each Bioflux lasts a minute)

Bioflux spoils in two hours. So a Captive biter spawner will consume 120 Bioflux in the time it takes the Bioflux to spoil.
