About

The Tusoteuthis (Retrieve) is a specialized invertebrate variant of the standard Tusoteuthis, introduced in the Genesis DLC. It shares the Tusoteuthis name tag with the base creature but runs distinct behavior logic tied to retrieval mechanics, making it a separate entity under the hood.

Admins are most likely to encounter this entity ID when reviewing server logs, configuring spawn entries, or troubleshooting mission-related creature spawns on Genesis maps. Because it is a variant rather than the standard wild Tusoteuthis, spawning it directly may produce unexpected behavior outside its intended context.

When building custom spawn configurations or dino counts, treat this entity as distinct from the base Tusoteuthis_Character_BP_C. Use its entity ID Tusoteuthis_Character_BP_Retrieve_C precisely if you need to reference or suppress it in server settings.

Send the same command through RCON or your control panel: admincheat Summon Tusoteuthis_Character_BP_Retrieve_C. Log in as admin first (enablecheats <AdminPassword>); if your tool already runs with admin context, drop the leading "cheat".
