{{Beta}}
'''''Beta info is not complete'''''

== Spawner Characteristics==

*Loses the ability to spread if spawned on a sand [[Tiles|tile]]
*Can spawn naturally depending on the age with the "Other [[Disasters]]" [[World Laws|world law]] enabled (except Cybercores)
*Hostile to almost all other creatures seeking only to advance themselves
*"Creep" tiles give units a 20% (50% before beta) speed debuff
* All minions except assimilators can turn into [[Mush Spores|mush]]. None of the minions can turn into any other [[Second Life "Options" (Undead)|undead]] monsters 
*Spawners and their minions do not need [[food]]
*Are attracted to the [[Golden Brain|golden brain]]
*You can not edit advanced brain or phenotype (subspecies)

== Creep Biome Spread ==
[[File:CreepBiomeSpread.png|right|frameless]]
[[File:Betaspawnerspread.png|thumb|In beta]]
Spawners will spread their own characteristic '''creep biomes''' around them. The mechanism of this spread is different from the spread of regular biomes, and is achieved by '''creep workers'''. These workers are not physical entities, but their movement paths can be observed in game as a faint white line. 

Each type of spawner has a fixed '''number of workers''' working simultaneously. Workers will start form the spawner building and move outwards; as they move, they lay down the creep biomes, creating a spreading effect. 

Workers have a fixed '''step limit''' for every trip they make; when they reach this step limit, the worker returns to the spawner building. Note that each step can traverse more than 1 tile. Workers in each type of spawner have a fixed '''step interval''', which is the time the worker takes to move 1 step. 

Workers of different spawners have different movement directions, leading to different patterns of spread:

* Random movement - the worker's next step can be any tile neighboring the current tile. Used by biomass.
* Directional movement, with random disturbances - the worker moves in a certain direction, but may experience minor random displacements in the axis perpendicular to its movement direction. Used by super pumpkins and tumors. 
* Directional movement, without random disturbances - the worker moves in a certain direction. Used by cybercores. 

Workers for cybercores and super pumpkins will randomly change their direction of movement after a certain number of steps. ('''steps before changing direction''')

==Spawner Specific Info==

===Tumor ===
Tumors have been in the game for a very long time. Units walking on tumor tiles have a chance to get the tumor infection [[Traits|trait]] (slowly kills units) which will cause them to turn into a tumor monster on death. [[Plague Doctor|Plague doctors]] will try to burn tumor tiles and treat infections. 

===Biomass===
Units walking on biomass tiles have a chance to receive the [[madness]] trait. Tiles can't freeze and every step units make on it there is a 5% chance of them getting the slowness status 

===Super Pumpkin===
[[Druid|Druids]] and Super Pumpkins are friends. The Super Pumpkin creep tiles are sometimes called "roots" or "vines". Tiles can't freeze and every step units make on it there is a 2% chance of them getting the slowness status

===Cybercore===
Assimilators are armed with shotguns, one of the most powerful [[Weapons, Tools and Accessories|weapons]] in worldbox. Cyber tiles can't freeze or burn. The tiles can be destroyed with the demolish tool <gallery>
