Ecology
The lifespan of Cylindrus obtusus is probably several years.[3]
The dispersal rate of Cylindrus obtusus is about 3 cm per day.[3]
gollark: But it *can* do what you want'.
gollark: This is the wrong mod then.
gollark: I find that CC can be nicer for this sort of base automation task, since it can interact with a good number of things, and making computers is easier and less hassle.
gollark: If you expect a mod with *general-purpose computers* to basically just offer random specific commands for your random specific (and under-detailed) usecases, you're doing it wrong.
gollark: Maybe not the item restocking one. I don't know how good the interfaces to AE2 or whatever are.
