About

The Scout is a Fantasy-type creature introduced in the Extinction DLC. It can be referenced in admin commands using the entity ID Scout_Character_BP_C and the name tag Scout.

Admins working on Extinction servers will encounter this creature when managing wild spawns, setting up creature spawn overrides, or testing taming configurations. The entity ID is the reliable identifier to use in SpawnDino or similar commands when targeting this creature specifically.

Because the Scout is tied to the Extinction DLC, it will not appear on base-game maps unless spawn entries are manually configured. Keep that in mind when writing spawn container overrides intended to work across multiple maps.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Scout Creature a DLC creature or part of the base game?
The Scout Creature is tied to the Extinction content, so that map or pack must be installed for it to appear naturally. Admins can still force-spawn it on any map with summon commands.
How do I spawn a Scout Creature at an exact level and position?
Run admincheat SpawnDino "Blueprint'/Game/Extinction/Dinos/Scout/Scout_Character_BP.Scout_Character_BP'" 0 0 0 0. SpawnDino takes the full blueprint path followed by spawn distance, Y offset, Z offset and level, so you can place the Scout Creature precisely instead of dropping it on top of your character.

What's the Scout Creature blueprint path?
The Scout Creature blueprint path is "Blueprint'/Game/Extinction/Dinos/Scout/Scout_Character_BP.Scout_Character_BP'".

What is the Scout Creature name tag for Game.ini?
