Changes: Critters

Latest revision as of 04:56, 12 October 2023

Exclusive to:

Critters, also known as Pets, are passive immortal Mobs in Don't Starve Together, introduced in A New Reign. They look like baby versions of some other Mobs in the game and can be obtained from the Critters Tab while standing next to the Rock Den. Each pet requires two Items to adopt, an item related to the mob and a specific food made with a Crock Pot.

Critters will make noise when hungry, but won't die if not fed. Critters can be fed anything edible, including Eternal Fruitcake, Rot, and Rotten Eggs. Any food given refreshes the critter's hunger time to its maximum. Critters have a hunger time of 2 days after which they will be considered starving. Because critter hunger is handled using the same system as food spoilage, the rate at which they become hungry is affected by weather the same way other perishable items are.

There is a "mini-game" around critters' maximum hunger time. Players can increase this time to up to 4.5 days (5.5 for "Plump" critters) in the increments of 0.5, by feeding the critter when it is between its 20% and 50% hunger time remaining. When it is fed when with less than 20% hunger time remaining, this maximum time will decrease. Feeding the critter when it has above 50% of its hunger time remaining has no effect on the maximum hunger time. A critter can be "pet" by clicking on it, triggering a small animation.

Each player can only have one critter at any given time. To get a different critter, players must "Abandon" their current one by standing near a Rock Den and right-clicking that critter. Walter's companion Woby counts as pet, making Walter unable to adopt critters from the Rock Den. Kitcoons follow players in the same way as critters and can be Pet and Abandoned in the same way that critters can, but they do not count as critters themselves. As such, any number of Kitcoons can be recruited as followers in addition to the player's one critter.

Traits

Critters can have traits which determine their behavior. Player actions add or subtract points from one of the Critter's traits, depending on the action, with the trait having the most points becoming the dominant trait and an adjective is shown in the Critter's name.

A Critter's first dominant trait is determined after 10 days of obtaining the Critter, and dominant traits are reassigned every 1.75 to 2.25 days.

Trait points decay at the rate of 0.7 point per day for playful and well-fed, 0.9 points per day for crafty and 1.35 per day for scrappy trait. The maximum amount of points a Critter's trait can have is 40, while the minimum is -6. Should all traits on a Critter have a negative point value, the Critter will revert to having no traits, and the next dominant trait is assigned after 3.75 to 4.25 days.

Performing an action that adds points to a trait that is already the dominant trait gives a 10% bonus to the points added to that trait.

The current dominant trait can be locked in permanently by feeding the critter any "goodie" food - this includes Taffy, Jellybeans, Mad Science Lab potions, and Winter's Feast candies. After that, the trait will never change until player abandons the critter.

Scrappy

The Scrappy trait is given to Critters when the player fights or kills Monsters. Killing small and passive Animals such as Rabbits doesn't count towards this trait.

The Combat trait adds the adjective "Scrappy" to the Critter's name and makes them perform aggressive animations towards monsters (but does not make them able to fight).

Crafty

The Crafty trait is given to Critters when the player Crafts items and Structures excluding Walls.

The Crafty trait adds the adjective "Crafty" to the Critter's name and makes them perform a special animation when the character is doing work (chopping, mining, digging), or crafting.

Playful

The Playful trait is given to Critters when the player pets them and when they play (either by themselves or with other players' Critters). Bonus points are awarded when the player pets critter after it nuzzles.

The Playful trait adds the adjective "Peppy" to the Critter, increases the range at which they play with other Critters, and makes them play more often (effectively decreasing the rate of point decay, since playing adds points to this trait).

Well-fed

The Well-fed trait is given to Critters when the player feeds them. All Crock Pot dishes give 4 points, while other edible items give 1 point. The Critter's favorite food is the food item used in order to adopt it, and feeding a Critter its favorite food gives 5 points to this trait. The points added to the trait are affected by the Food's freshness and its type and if it's the Critter's favorite food. Fresh food gives the full value, Stale food gives half (50%) of the value, and Spoiled food gives only a tenth (10%) of the value.

The Well-fed trait adds the adjective "Plump" to the Critter's name and increases the spoilage time to 3.25 days. This spoilage time can be increased to up to 5.5 days. No matter at which phase of "Plump" critter's freshness it is fed, its spoilage time will never go below 3.25 days.

Trivia

The original Critters were added in the Cute Fuzzy Animals update, Giblet during the Year of the Gobbler event, and Mothling in the Turn of Tides update.
The Kittykit's name seems to be a mash up of the name for baby cats and baby raccoons, "kitten" and "kit", as well as a play on the term "kitty cat".
- It used to be called the Kittycoon.^{[citation needed]}

Despite their name, the Vargling's appearance is more similar to the Hound. Furthermore, Wigfrid refers to it as a hound and they are made using Hound's Teeth.
- Wickerbottom refers to the Vargling as Canis lupus, which is the scientific species name of both the Eurasian gray wolf (Canis lupus lupus) and the domestic dog (Canis lupus familiaris). This suggests that the Vargling, and to an extent the Hounds and Varg, are related to wolves and dogs.
The two skins added for the Vargling during the Chinese New Year event Year of the Varg allude to the Chow Chow and the Shih Tzu, two dog breeds that supposedly originated in China.
There is an extra function in the Critters' code called "IsSuperCute", which does nothing except return "true".
Strangely, feeding a critter Rot or Rotten Eggs stops its hunger cries, despite them making players lose hunger points.

+== Traits ==
 Critters can have traits which determine their behavior. Player actions add or subtract points from one of the Critter's traits, depending on the action, with the trait having the most points becoming the dominant trait and an adjective is shown in the Critter's name.
 A Critter's first dominant trait is determined after 10 days of obtaining the Critter, and dominant traits are reassigned every 1.75 to 2.25 days.
-Trait points decay at the rate of 1 point per day. The maximum amount of points a Critter's trait can have is 40, while the minimum is -12. Should all traits on a Critter have a negative point value, the Critter will revert to having no traits, and the next dominant trait is assigned after 3.75 to 4.25 days.
+Trait points decay at the rate of 0.7 point per day for playful and well-fed, 0.9 points per day for crafty and 1.35 per day for scrappy trait. The maximum amount of points a Critter's trait can have is 40, while the minimum is -6. Should all traits on a Critter have a negative point value, the Critter will revert to having no traits, and the next dominant trait is assigned after 3.75 to 4.25 days.
 Performing an action that adds points to a trait that is already the dominant trait gives a 10% bonus to the points added to that trait.
-===Combat===
+The current dominant trait can be locked in permanently by feeding the critter any "goodie" food - this includes [[Taffy]], [[Jellybeans]], [[Mad Science Tab|Mad Science Lab]] potions, and [[Winter's Feast]] candies. After that, the trait will never change until player abandons the critter.
-The '''Combat''' trait is given to Critters when the player fights or kills [[Monsters]]. Killing small and passive [[Animals]] such as [[Rabbit]]s doesn't count towards this trait.
+=== Scrappy ===
+The '''Scrappy''' trait is given to Critters when the player fights or kills [[Monsters]]. Killing small and passive [[Animals]] such as [[Rabbit]]s doesn't count towards this trait.
 The Combat trait adds the adjective "Scrappy" to the Critter's name and makes them perform aggressive animations towards monsters (but does not make them able to fight).
-===Crafty===
+=== Crafty ===
 The '''Crafty''' trait is given to Critters when the player [[Crafting|Crafts]] items and Structures excluding [[Wall]]s.
-The Crafty trait adds the adjective "Crafty" to the Critter's name. It is currently the only trait that adds its name as the adjective.
+The Crafty trait adds the adjective "Crafty" to the Critter's name and makes them perform a special animation when the character is doing work (chopping, mining, digging), or crafting.
-===Playful===
+=== Playful ===
-The '''Playful''' trait is given to Critters when the player pets them and when they play (either by themselves or with other players' Critters).
+The '''Playful''' trait is given to Critters when the player pets them and when they play (either by themselves or with other players' Critters). Bonus points are awarded when the player pets critter after it nuzzles.
 The Playful trait adds the adjective "Peppy" to the Critter, increases the range at which they play with other Critters, and makes them play more often (effectively decreasing the rate of point decay, since playing adds points to this trait).
-===Well-fed===
-The '''Well-fed''' trait is given to Critters when the player feeds them. The points added to the trait are affected by the Food's [[Spoilage|freshness]] and its type and if it's the Critter's favorite food. Fresh food gives the full value, Stale food gives half (50%) of the value, and Spoiled food gives only a tenth (10%) of the value. All [[Crock Pot]] dishes give 4 points, while other food gives 1 point. The Critter's favorite food is the food item used in order to adopt it, and feeding a Critter its favorite food gives 5 points to this trait.
+=== Well-fed ===
-The Well-fed trait adds the adjective "Plump" to the Critter's name and makes them get hungry less often.
+The '''Well-fed''' trait is given to Critters when the player feeds them. All [[Crock Pot]] dishes give 4 points, while other edible items give 1 point. The Critter's favorite food is the food item used in order to adopt it, and feeding a Critter its favorite food gives 5 points to this trait. The points added to the trait are affected by the [[Food]]'s [[Spoilage|freshness]] and its type and if it's the Critter's favorite food. Fresh food gives the full value, Stale food gives half (50%) of the value, and Spoiled food gives only a tenth (10%) of the value.
+The Well-fed trait adds the adjective "Plump" to the Critter's name and increases the spoilage time to 3.25 days. This spoilage time can be increased to up to 5.5 days. No matter at which phase of "Plump" critter's freshness it is fed, its spoilage time will never go below 3.25 days.

-* Critters were added in the ''Cute Fuzzy Animals'' update, except for Giblets which were added with the ''[[Year of the Gobbler]]'' event.
+* The original Critters were added in the ''Cute Fuzzy Animals'' update, Giblet during the ''[[Year of the Gobbler]]'' event, and Mothling in the ''[[Return of Them#Turn of Tides|Turn of Tides]]'' update.
-* The Kittykit's name seems to be a mash up of the name for baby cats and baby racoons, 'kitten' and 'kit', as well as a play on the term 'kitty cat'.
+* The Kittykit's name seems to be a mash up of the name for baby cats and baby raccoons, "kitten" and "kit", as well as a play on the term "kitty cat".
+** It used to be called the Kittycoon.{{Citation}}
-* Despite their name, the Vargling's appearance is more similar to the [[Hound]].
+* Despite their name, the Vargling's appearance is more similar to the [[Hound]]. Furthermore, [[Wigfrid]] refers to it as a hound and they are made using [[Hound's Tooth|Hound's Teeth]].
+**[[Wickerbottom]] refers to the [[Vargling]] as ''Canis lupus,'' which is the scientific species name of both the Eurasian gray wolf ''(Canis lupus lupus)'' and the domestic dog ''(Canis lupus familiaris)''. This suggests that the Vargling, and to an extent the Hounds and [[Varg]], are related to wolves and dogs.
+* The two skins added for the Vargling during the Chinese New Year event ''[[Year of the Varg]]'' allude to the [[wikipedia:Chow_Chow|Chow Chow]] and the [[wikipedia:Shih Tzu|Shih Tzu]], two dog breeds that supposedly originated in China.
+* There is an extra function in the Critters' code called "IsSuperCute", which does nothing except return "true".
+* Strangely, feeding a critter [[Rot]] or [[Rotten Egg]]s stops its hunger cries, despite them making players ''lose'' hunger points.
