About

The Terror Bird is a large, aggressive avian creature found in the base game with no DLC requirement. Despite being classified as a bird, it is flightless and behaves more like a fast ground predator, making it a distinct presence in the wild population.

Admins can spawn or manage Terror Birds using the entity ID TerrorBird_Character_BP_C with commands such as SpawnDino or GMSummon. The name tag TerrorBird is used in kill, count, and targeting commands when you need to affect specific creatures by type.

When adjusting server spawn rates or setting up custom encounter scenarios, referencing the entity ID directly gives the most reliable results. Since it requires no DLC, it is available on any standard server without additional content checks.
