[[{{{type}}}]]

The void monolith is structure[?] that is the centerpoint of the Anomaly DLC. It is used to start the arrival of entities.

Acquisition

The monolith will already be on the map as a fallen monolith. when the player generates the world. If there is no monolith, a "strange signal" quest should appear that will create an monolith on the map when accepted.

Summary

The Void Monolith is the first Entity that the player will encounter. Upon first activating the monolith, a gray pall will immediately occur and colonists will be able to begin studying it. Studying it will cause entities to begin appearing in your colony, much as studying the mechanoid transponder started the process for Mechanitors.

Analysis

After a certain amount of study, your researchers will grow to better understand the monolith, increasing the amount of research it provides. For this reason, it's important to research it whenever it's available.

It cannot be moved and is important to an Anomaly playthrough, so its position should be taken into consideration when planning your base. If unable to directly base around or nearby the monolith, it is advised to create a safe and lit path from the colony to the monolith so colonists can safely study it and interact with it if necessary, especially during events such as unnatural darkness.

Behavior

When left alone when first starting (depends on the start you choose) It might start "twisting" in which it will take around 4 days
