About

The Dodo (Sport) is an event creature variant of the standard Dodo, introduced with the Genesis DLC. It functions within event-based sporting activities rather than as a standard tameable or wild spawn, making it distinct from the regular Dodo in both behavior and context.

Admins working with Genesis event content can reference the entity ID Dodo_Character_BP_Basketball_C when spawning or scripting encounters for sport-themed events. Because it is an event creature, it may only appear or behave as intended during specific event conditions on the server.

If you are troubleshooting a Genesis event or setting up a custom sport mini-game scenario, confirm that the relevant event flags are active on your server, simply spawning the creature by entity ID may not fully replicate its intended event functionality.
