Desert is a biome in Scrap Mechanic.
Overview[]
Desert Biome
A desert biome consisting of mostly sand and rocks with very few Trees and Harvestables.
Oil pools are unique to deserts and can be harvested with a vacuum pump and large chest to automate the collection of crude oil.
Bots never spawn in deserts outside of raids and rarely wander in making them very safe locations. Large deserts often include a mesa with steep cliffsides and farmable land on top. The top of the mesa is completely unreachable by hostile bots, so a moderate amount of crops can be grown AFK with absolutely no defenses, though water will have to be brought in from other biomes.
