About

The Tiktaalik (Rift) is an amphibian creature from the Aquatica DLC, representing a rift-specific variant of the standard Tiktaalik. As an amphibian, it is adapted to aquatic or semi-aquatic environments and behaves accordingly in those zones.

Admins working with spawn commands or creature management tools should use the entity ID Tiktaalik_Character_BP_Rift_C to target this variant specifically, since the Rift version is distinct from any base Tiktaalik entry. This matters when scripting spawners, configuring NPC replacements, or troubleshooting creature population issues on Aquatica-enabled servers.

Because this creature is tied to the Aquatica DLC, it will only appear and function correctly on servers that have that content enabled. Verify DLC activation before attempting to spawn or configure this creature.
