Changes: Callers

Revision as of 11:13, 20 June 2022

Purpose and Usage

Animals are attracted to a caller when they not in stress mode (after being spooked).
Simply call by pressing and holding the left mouse button, then prepare for the animals coming towards you.
Some animals will respond to your call by calling back.
Most animals will move towards your call, they can however ignore it sometimes.
The attraction time for callers is different for each type. See column Attraction duration.
You can use the callers while walking, and in all positions.
You can not "over-call". Animals will never spook because you called too much.
Some callers have a double effect. They attract the animal, but also have a chance for animals to respond vocally. [1]
The callers have a reach of 220 meters.
- An exception is the Jackrabbit caller that only attracts felines up to 100 meters.
