Prey

Passive creature who eats plants and flees from Hostiles.

This behaviour has not yet been migrated for use in multiplayer Experiences.

Prey

• Walk within a defined zone

• Eat specific assets within its range

• The eating frequency can be changed within its parameters

• Once it detects a predator, it tries to escape by increasing its speed and running away from the predator

• Once an asset gets eaten, it goes for another one if its hunger hasn’t reached its maximum

• Peaceful creature that doesn’t attack any targets

Common Uses

• A creature that flees from Predators and seeks a food source, which will stop seeking food when hunger parameters are met

• Removing Objects from an Experience at a more consistent rate than the Farmer Behaviour's random and continuous "harvesting"
