Practical guidance
Check the resistance table before choosing damage types. Prepare food and relevant resistance effects, then follow the offering and location links below. Listed attacks are base values, not a promise of damage taken.
Creature food matching uses shared item names. Consumption searches on its interval, moves within consume range, turns within twenty degrees and removes one item before callbacks. A satiated tame creature skips the new search. Pheromone flee effects match the target creature shared name. Sleep checks separate configured wake range, sleep delay, pursuit and noise. Animals flee sensed targets, can avoid fire and clear danger after their safety timer. Structure priority/random-target flags are distinct AI inputs. HavePath requires a complete native navmesh path; ordinary GetPath may accept partial paths unless their endpoints are under terrain.
Drops
Selection mode: character drop. Entry weights are relative weights, not percentages. Min/max are authored bounds; level and resource modifiers have separate rules.
