Build Flying Slime Tips

Phosphor Slimes are frugivorous slimes that only spawn at night.

— Slimes

Slimes are gelatinous, ball-shaped, adorable alien creatures that live in the Far, Far Range. They are a key element within the game since they are responsible for the production of plorts that are used to make money and create gadgets in the game.

Phosphor Slimes are one of the most common slimes in the game that can appear almost anywhere, though only appear - and can only survive - at night. If they sit in the sunlight for too long, they disappear.

There are several different species of slimes, each found in certain locations on the Far, Far Range. Though their most common features are the permanent happy expressions they have on their faces when fed and their high pitched voices, each type of slime has a unique trait that is used to identify it.

Slimepedia Entry

Slimeology:

Phosphor slimes come out at night, flying about the moonlit range upon their translucent wings. Phosphor slimes have a luminescent slime core that pulses with a soft glow, making them easy to spot. It's for this reason ranchers sometimes refer to them as 'low stars'.

Plortonomics:

The luminescent compound found within phosphor plorts can produce light for over 100 years, making it an incredibly eco-friendly form of illumination on Earth. Cities across the globe are slowly switching over to phosphor lights, saving trillions of gigawatts of energy daily. Plus if you rub the stuff in your hair, it glows and looks really cool.

More rarely, engines can move in multiple directions. They have multiple piston mechanisms, each for movement into a separate direction. The only thing the player needs is just to re-arrange some blocks (usually blocks of redstone), which can be automated more easily.

Slimeology

Phosphor Slimes are frugivorous slimes that only spawn at night. They have a noticeable glow inside them. Phosphor slimes can use their wings to fly, albeit not very long. They can stack upon another slime, and fly away with the slime still stuck to it. They cannot last long in sunlight (thirty real-world seconds or 30 in-game minutes), and after that time is up, they're gone for good.

Tips

Phosphor Slimes are sensitive to sunlight and will disappear when exposed after 30 seconds. If keeping them corraled out in the open, be sure to upgrade their corrals with a Solar Shield.

Alternatively, they can be kept in The Grotto where there is no sunlight so Solar Shields are not required.

Phosphor Slimes can fly and will attempt to fly away through the top of their corral when agitated. Upgrade their corrals with an Air Net, and try to reduce their agitation with a Music Box upgrade and a Night Light.

Trivia

Phosphor Slimes may be a reference to the real-world material White phosphorus and its tendency to turn into Red phosphorus when exposed to sunlight. Though visually they may be inspired by fireflies and a Will-o'-the-wisp

Phosphor Slimes are the only Slime that appears exclusively at night.

The Slimepedia icon for the Phosphor Slime lacks their antennae.

Phosphor Slimes are capable of carrying one other slime with them when they fly, given that the agitation is high enough for them to stack.

Changes

0.6.0: Fixed a bug where flying phosphor slimes only moved north east.

0.3.4: An issue where phosphor slimes could sometimes disappear from the Grotto or corrals with solar shields was fixed.

0.2.5: A bug causing Phosphor Slimes to think that Solar Shield was in a corral when it wasn't was fixed.

0.2.4: Fix of a bug causing them to lose wings when Slime Quality was set to Low.

Before 0.2.0: Phosphor Slimes were added.

Each Slime - except the Pink, Puddle, Fire and Lucky Slimes - has a unique favourite food, which when fed to the appropriate Slime doubles the plorts they produce. Most of them can be converted to Largo Slimes to increase profitability even further.
