Genetic Trait

Insert it in a genetic synthesizer to create a new creature.

Usage[]

Three to eight Genetic Traits are combined in a Genetic Synthesizer to create Creature DNA. This DNA can then be placed into an Animal Shelter to spawn an animal. Six traits of any type are also required for Animals Spreader Rockets.

Obtaining[]

Genetic traits can be

Found in treasure crates.
Created by inserting specific items into a Genetic Extractor.
Randomly obtained from petting animals.

Types[]

There are eight different types of genetic traits, which influence eight different aspects of the animal.

Bioluminescence Trait[]

This determines how brightly your new animal glows. This trait is optional. It can be obtained from various items (see table below).

Bioluminescence requires a skin pattern. Un-patterned animals will not express bioluminescence even if they have a gene for it. Higher grades of bioluminescence glow more brightly.

Bioluminescence Genetic Traits

Level	Source	Image
1	Golden Seed
2	Golden frog eggs
3	Butterfly Golden larva
4	Golden fish eggs
5	Magnetar Quartz
6	Quasar Quartz
7	Loot (20 %) ^[1]
8	Loot (10 %) ^[1]
9	Loot (8 %) ^[1]
10	Loot (5 %) ^[1]

Size Trait[]

This defines the maximum size of the new animal. This trait is optional. It can be obtained from various items (see table below).

The actual size of an animal is determined by multiplying the value of the "Size" trait with its current growth value. A freshly spawned animal has a growth value of 30% which will gradually increase over time if the animal is not hungry.
