Where to find Creature Pellets

Creature Pellets are made, not found. The crafting recipe is 60 Carbon. The Mining Laser harvests Carbon from trees, plants, and other vegetation.

A Nutrient Processor makes them too: 1 Carbon makes 1 Creature Pellet. Other Prepare Bait recipes use 1 Mordite plus a raw meat, or 1 Faecium plus a harvested plant.

The item text says this bait attracts creatures and makes them yield Faecium. Once a creature has been fed, it may be tamed or farmed, and dropping bait may calm an angry one.
