Animal spawners question

[aUserName]

Does anyone know which spawners are for which animals? I’m trying to populate certain lots with particular small animals, but they’re only labeled 1-4. Also, how often do they spawn something?

I would also like an answer.

After collection of the critter the spawner can spawn the next day, but there is only a 50% chance of the spawn occurring; possibly this is what causes this 1-3 days general rule on the other spawners, the butterflies, gems etc. So it may take a couple days for these new ones to spawn also.

Thanks for that, Shimrod!

I think some of the other spawners, seed, gem etc., also spawn small animals/ birds too.

[DaCruikshanks]

The seed and gem spawners have a set chance to spawn an animal when they spawn (which can be changed with a tuning mod).

In the Gameplay Data package, there are lines like this one where you can see what the spawn rate of minor pets from a seed/gem/ bug spawner is:

<kChanceForeignInsectSpawnerSpawnsPet value="0.75">
<!--Range 0.0 - 1.0. The chance a foreign insect spawner will attempt to spawn a minor pet instead of the normally spawned objects.-->
</kChanceForeignInsectSpawnerSpawnsPet>

I made this one really high (75%) to try and get more critters in the worlds. Turns out it's more complicated than that...
