About

The Diseased Leech is an invertebrate variant of the standard Leech. It shares the Leech name tag with its non-diseased counterpart, meaning spawn and kill commands that target by name tag will affect both variants. Admins who need to target this creature specifically should use the entity ID Leech_Character_Diseased_C rather than the name tag.

This creature is part of the base game and requires no DLC. Its primary significance for server admins is in disease-related gameplay tuning, if you want to remove or adjust the presence of disease-carrying leeches in the wild, targeting this entity ID directly gives you precise control without disturbing regular Leech spawns.
