Compendium unlocking

Cave Codices can be used to unlock information in the Cave Compendium pertaining to the biome of the codex by pressing the use button. Four of the same codices are needed to unlock all chapters of a biome in the sequential order of:

1. General (Biome Section and Introduction chapter) of the pertaining biome.
   
2. Resources chapter of the pertaining biome.
   
3. Inhabitants chapter of the pertaining biome.
   
4. Utilities chapter of the pertaining biome.
   

After four of the same codices have been used, they will stop being accepted as there is no more information about their matching biomes needed to be unlocked.

Secret unlocking

If the Cave Codex pertains to either the Primordial Caves or Toxic Caves, an extra codex can be used on top of the previous four to unlock secret information about the corresponding biomes.

While this secret information isn't categorized into its own chapter, it rather adds more information to already previously unlocked ones.

• Unlocking the secrets for the Primordial Caves reveals the entries of the Luxtructosaurus and Atlatitan in the previously unlocked Inhabitants chapter.
• Unlocking the secrets for the Toxic Caves reveals the entries of the Tremorzilla in the previously unlocked Inhabitants chapter.
