About

The Dakosaurus (Rift) is a reptile creature from the Aquatica DLC, representing the Rift-specific variant of the Dakosaurus. Like other variant creatures, it shares the Dakosaurus name tag with its base counterpart but uses a distinct entity ID, which matters when writing spawn commands, loot tables, or creature-specific config entries.

Admins working with Aquatica content should use the entity ID Dakosaurus_Character_BP_Rift_C when targeting this variant specifically, for example, in DinoSpawnWeightMultipliers or NPCReplacements entries in Game.ini. Using the base Dakosaurus entity ID will not affect this Rift variant.

Because this creature is tied to the Aquatica DLC, it will only appear on maps or in zones where that content is active. Verify your server has the appropriate DLC content enabled if spawns or config entries for this variant are not taking effect.
