About

The Arthropluera (Retrieve) is a mission-specific variant of the standard Arthropluera invertebrate, introduced in the Genesis DLC. It shares the Arthropluera name tag with its base counterpart but uses its own entity ID, Arthro_Character_BP_Retrieve_C, distinguishing it from wild or tamed versions used outside mission contexts.

Admins working with Genesis mission scripting or troubleshooting Retrieve missions will reference this entity ID when spawning, force-taming, or destroying specific instances tied to that mission type. Using the base Arthropluera entity ID in place of this one will target the wrong creature class and produce unexpected results.

Because this is a mission variant, it is only relevant in Genesis map contexts. On other maps or outside the appropriate mission trigger, spawning this creature may behave unpredictably.

Run admincheat SpawnDino "Blueprint'/Game/Genesis/Dinos/MissionVariants/Retrieve/Volcanic/Arthro_Character_BP_Retrieve.Arthro_Character_BP_Retrieve'" 0 0 0 0.
