The Tranquilizer Arrow is a specialty ammo type loaded into a bow to incapacitate creatures without dealing damage. When it strikes a target, it applies torpor over time, gradually rendering the creature unconscious. Admins spawn these to quickly stock taming supplies or to outfit players during early survival stages.
The arrow has no stack limit in inventory, so you can carry as many as you need. Spawn it by its item ID or GFI code; both resolve to the same ammunition type. Effectiveness scales with the creature's size and torpor resistance, so larger or more resistant dinos may require multiple shots to reach full unconsciousness.
