About

The Purlovia (Retrieve) is a mammal creature exclusive to the Genesis DLC. It is a mission-specific variant of the standard Purlovia, distinct from its wild counterpart by function and entity ID rather than appearance.

Admins working with Genesis mission content will encounter this variant tied to Retrieve-type mission scenarios. When spawning or referencing it via console commands, use the entity ID Purlovia_Character_BP_Retrieve_C rather than the base Purlovia entity, as the two are treated as separate creatures by the game.

Because this is a mission variant, spawning it outside its intended Genesis context may produce unexpected behavior. It shares the Purlovia name tag, so target selectors that filter by name tag rather than entity ID may inadvertently affect both variants.
