Health

Health
Maximum hit points. The creature dies and drops its loot when this reaches zero. Players can chip it down with knives, harpoons or vehicle-mounted weapons.
Swim speed
?5.0 m/s
Swim speed
Top movement speed underwater, in metres per second. Used when chasing prey, fleeing threats, or migrating between territory zones. For reference: the Seaglide tops out around 11 m/s.
Food pool
?20
Food pool
Hunger meter. Drains over time, refills when the creature feeds on prey or plants. When the pool empties, the creature actively hunts, which is why hungry predators are more aggressive.
Bulk
?40
Bulk
Engine mass / weight class. Drives water displacement (so creatures push you around), the carry-weight footprint when the corpse becomes an item, and AI prey-selection heuristics (bigger bulk means bigger fight).
Scan time
?4s
Scan time
How long you have to hold the Scanner on this creature before its dossier unlocks. Move with the target, stay inside the reticle, and don't break line of sight or the scan resets.
Stats inherited from the big-creature default. Unknown Worlds hasn't shipped a per-creature override in this build.
