About Animal Levels
Animal Levels adds a fresh twist to Rust’s wildlife by giving animals their own levels, stats, and behaviors. Instead of every encounter feeling the same, you’ll run into creatures with different health, gather yields, and even unique abilities. Some might be easy prey, others a real threat — making hunting and exploring a lot more unpredictable and rewarding.
Features:
- Animals have different levels
- Animals can have different mutations
- Fully configurable loot
- Supports all animals in the game
- Fully customizable
