About

The Daeodon (Retrieve) is a mammal-type creature tied to the Genesis DLC, distinct from the standard Daeodon by its role in retrieval mission scenarios. It shares the Daeodon name tag with its standard counterpart but uses a separate entity ID, meaning generic Daeodon spawns will not produce this variant.

Admins working with Genesis mission content should reference the entity ID Daeodon_Character_BP_Retrieve_C when spawning or scripting encounters that specifically require the retrieval variant. Using the base Daeodon entity in its place may not satisfy mission conditions or behave as expected within those scripted contexts.

Because this variant is DLC-specific, it will only function correctly on servers running the Genesis content. Attempting to force-spawn it on non-Genesis maps may produce errors or result in the creature not appearing.
