About

The Meganeura is a prehistoric giant dragonfly-type invertebrate found in the base game. It belongs to the invertebrate creature category and uses the entity ID Dragonfly_Character_BP_C for spawning and targeting via admin commands.

Admins can use the entity ID with commands like SpawnDino or GMSummon to spawn a Meganeura directly. The name tag Dragonfly is the internal identifier the game uses to reference this creature in certain contexts.

As a base-game creature with no DLC requirement, Meganeura is available on all standard maps without any additional content. It is a passive, ambient creature, so admins dealing with swarm density or environment tuning may target it when adjusting ecosystem population settings.
