This mod adds the Cricosaurus, a small thalattosuchian with a knack for spooking off underwater pests and hunting eurypterids!

Cricosaurus Info:

Spawns: Anywhere in the ocean, usually near the surface
Passive Tamed with meat, prefers Simple Kibble
Not rideable, non shoulder pet
Breedable, Live birth

Abilities:

Pet for XP Boost: Like a Lystrosaurus, you can pet your Cricosaurus to give allied tames a boost to their XP gain

Invertebrate Expert: Cricosaurus deals 4x damage to Eurypterids and Trilobites, and 2x damage to Ammonites and Cnidaria (NOTE: Cricosaurus is not immune to cnidaria shocks and ammonite bile, so attack at your own discretion)

Cunning Aura: Cricosaurus instills fear into the hearts of nearby Piranhas, Leeches, Eurypterids, Trilobites & Salmon, causing them to flee when in a 5m radius of a Cricosaurus

NEW FEATURES:

Wild Size Variation: Wild Cricosaurus will now spawn anywhere from 0.9-1.2x their base size, and 1.2x Cricosaurus can be ridden!

Pack Bonus: Previously, Cricosaurus were pretty fragile, but with the addition of a pack bonus (up to +5) they should be more useful now!

Spawn Command:

sdf "Crico_Character_BP_C" 1 150 0

Other Information:

5% chance to get a Cricosaurus Chibi when taming a Cricosaurus

Future Plans:

Allowing Cricosaurus to go out of the water and move around
Rideable X-Crico that spawns in the oceans of Gen1
