A few questions about animals in the game.

[Crynux]

Hello All,

 

I have a few questions about animal spawning in the game... for a mod I'm working on. Basically;

 

1. Where do animals get their spawn position set? Is it done in one source file, or independant for each animal?

 

2. Where does the game get told of when to spawn the animals?

 

Any help with this will be greatly appreciated. I had a look at the source myself, but was unable to make any concrete determination.

 

Thanks in advance,

Crynux

Hounds are controlled by the hounded.lua file in /scripts/components

 

Gobblers are managed by the bush itself

 

Spiders are managed by their nest which is created at world generation or by queens in later game 

 

Pigmen/Mermen by their huts created at work generation

 

Rabbits by holes created at world generation

 

(aka, its basically all done at world generation. no respawns)
