About

The X-Megalodon (Escort) is a specialized variant of the standard X-Megalodon found exclusively on the Genesis map. As a Fish-type creature, it shares the general biology of the Megalodon but is flagged as an escort, meaning it spawns as part of a structured encounter rather than as a free-roaming wild creature.

Admins working with Genesis ocean content should note the distinct entity ID Ocean_Megalodon_Character_BP_Escort_C when targeting this variant in commands or spawn configurations. Using the base X-Megalodon entity ID will not produce this escort version.

Because this creature is tied to scripted encounter logic, spawning it manually outside its intended context may result in unexpected behavior. It shares the X-Megalodon name tag with its standard counterpart, so filtering by name tag alone won't distinguish between the two in server logs or admin tools.
