Critter

Critters are small, friendly monsters found on planets. They have a tiny amount of health and cannot be captured using Capture Pods.

To "capture" a critter requires a special gun, a Relocator. Using this player can pick critters up and place them again. After being released from the Relocator critters will behave normally and usually will not despawn. Spawning critters with the Spawn Monster Command will not prevent them from despawning. Relocators can capture ground critters in addition to wild fish, fish caught using a Fishing Rod, and flying critters.

During beta or 1.0 critters could be captured using Capture Pods.

Critters can be spawned with the admin command:

• /spawnmonster [spawn name] [level]
• /spawnmonster ravencritter 6 (Example)

Note: Rate refers to block probability when creating the world. So .01 roughly means 1 per 100 blocks that meet the other criteria.

Trivia

• The three eyed raven critter is likely a reference to the same creature in Game of Thrones.
• The name "Groop" is likely a portmanteau of "grass" and "Gloop", the name of another critter.
• The three cell critters found on the mission to defeat The Ruin spawn new cells with unique behavior when killed.
  • "Cell 1" spawns two cells identical to itself.
  • "Cell 2" spawns a fast-moving version of itself.
  • "Egg Cell" spawns a flying version of itself.
