About

The Onyc (Gauntlet) is a mammal-type creature and a gauntlet-specific variant of the standard Onyc bat, exclusive to the Genesis DLC. It exists as a distinct entity from the regular Onyc to support the structured mission and gauntlet encounters found in Genesis.

Admins working with Genesis gauntlet missions may encounter this variant when managing spawns, debugging mission encounters, or using SpawnDino commands. Use the entity ID Bat_Character_BP_Gauntlet_C to target or spawn this specific variant rather than the base Onyc.

Because this creature is tied to gauntlet scenarios, spawning it outside of its intended mission context may produce unexpected behavior. It shares the Onyc name tag with the standard version, so rely on the entity ID to distinguish the two when scripting or issuing admin commands.
