About

The Araneo is an invertebrate creature identified in the game as SpiderS_Character_BP_C with the name tag Spider. It is a base-game creature, requiring no DLC to appear on compatible maps.

Admins working with spawn containers, NPC replacements, or creature population configs should use the entity ID SpiderS_Character_BP_C when targeting this creature directly. The name tag Spider may appear in certain config entries or kill-trigger conditions and is worth noting separately from the full entity ID.

Because it is classified as an invertebrate, the Araneo falls into that creature category for any server rules or mods that sort by creature type. Keep this in mind when adjusting damage multipliers, taming settings, or spawn weight configs that filter by type.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I spawn a tamed Araneo Creature?

How do I spawn a Araneo Creature at an exact level and position?
Run admincheat SpawnDino "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/Dinos/Spider-Small/SpiderS_Character_BP.SpiderS_Character_BP'" 0 0 0 0. SpawnDino takes the full blueprint path followed by spawn distance, Y offset, Z offset and level, so you can place the Araneo Creature precisely instead of dropping it on top of your character.

The Araneo Creature is part of the base ARK: Survival Ascended game, so no DLC or map pack is required to spawn it.
