They do not. They call Apex 'Monkey Man'.

However, the Floran introduction is a mysterious metaphorical allegory about memories and forgetting which seems to point loosely towards floran being less advanced than they perhaps should be.

And I've never actually seen any reference to Greenfinger's race or day-job.
Considering the most 'progressive' work of art ever produced by a floran is 'Floran Peace', which is a 300 page book about stabbing Hlyotl, 50 pages of which are a tirade insulting Hlyotl, I have to be convinced that Greenfinger is either a messiah or a completely different race altogether.

Which I Just Did.
There's currently no way to access more than a few entries at a time without some sheer luck, however, so it's sparse for now.

I'm not sure why the murderous plant people are the cutest, but they manage it anyway.

It is going to be interesting when florans can upgrade their ship. The ship they have no idea how to build, they just took over and put up some vines...

Maybe the vines will grow new rooms for them? So you end up with the Apex ship as a core with the plantrooms all around? That'd be kinda cool.

If you're trying to make a comprehensive wiki entry, you should probably put all of the codices onto that, not just the ones you found. Look in assets/codex/ for a complete list.

Do you people have no idea how to crop pictures or use spoiler tags?

... no idea, Gir. No bloody idea. How tempting it is to take a gigantic screenshot with the statement "Knowledge is not Will" spelled out in blocks in the middle, and then post it unspoilered and uncropped.

So to save us all the bandwidth and annoyance (since I do know how to spoiler and crop, and greatly prefer to), just... picture it for me. Please ;_;

I'm pretty sure spoilered images still suck up bandwidth.

I could have cropped it, I suppose, to just show the relevant parts... But sometimes you're playing a game, post a screenshot and don't actually realize how large it is then go back to playing without realizing that somebody on the other side of the world would be inconvenienced by the humongous screenshot. Normally I pride myself for keeping picture etiquette most of the time, aggressively using height/width tags or cropping whenever possible.

That sounds like a great idea.
I'll do that after I wait a few days and see whether or not the wiki people take them down for whatever reason.

I have to ask: is there any point in going to the Beta sector? I'm still running around the Alpha sector with almost a full set of steel armor; just need some more pixels to complete the set. Iron and coal to make more steel aren't exactly uncommon. The only reason I can imagine going to the Beta sector for is to find better weapons.

Floran prefer ssslash to stab, but it floran likesss to stab that isss fine with floran.
Floran isss wizard, so floran use wizard ssstaff.

Isss big ssstaff. Good for crushing crittersss and breaking blocksss.

Every sector introduces you to new ores and better weapons, but there are also sector-specific upgrades. I don't remember exactly when you get to make the paintgun, wiregun, or pokeballs, but it isn't in Alpha sec.

You can make both of those guns with the Mk3 starmap. You just need materials.

Roughly half the biomes in the game don't spawn in Alpha sector. If you enjoy exploration, you'll want to get to X Sector ASAP.
