My Biter spawners aren't dropping biomatter and I don't see the shovel tool. Am I missing something?

In any krastorio 2.0 biomass is collected from spawner corpses after destroying the nest. You may be using rampant fixed mod that doesn't work with biomatter

ok I murdered another base and I can get 1-2 biomass by mining the corpse, however the corpse seems to despawn very quickly and this is very tedious to get my first biolab at this rate. I remember my last K2 playthrough a bunch of biomass would be collectable on the ground with a shovel tool after pushing a base.

This is feature of both space age and original krastorio 2. I will think about increasing the amount of biomass dropped

OK thanks, no worries if this is the intended progression. Glad I'm not on 100x!

I don't see how to collect the biomatter, there is no shortcut on the shovel to collect it.

you need to collect it from spawner corpse

What tool do I use to collect? I don't see the shovel in the shortcuts

just use right click on a biter spawner corpse
