Animal racing
With UnbelievaBoat, you are able to purchase an animal, give it a name, send it to a race, and more. You can even have it race against your friend's animal! This guide covers the basics on animal racing.
The animals module has not been added to slash commands. Use the text command prefix instead (default is !)
Deciding on an animal
There are several animals available for purchase. Each animal has a different price and lifespan. When an animal reaches the end of its lifespan, it dies.
| Animal | Default price | Lifespan |
|---|---|---|
| Snail | 10 | 12 hours |
| Pigeon | 40 | 2 days |
| Greyhound | 100 | 1 week |
| Horse | 500 | 1 month |
Servers can scale animal and provision prices, so prices may be different. Check !animals store for current prices.
!animals store
Purchasing an animal
Once decided on, you can purchase the animal. Give it a name if you'd like!
!animals buy <snail | pigeon | greyhound | horse> [nickname]
Once bought, the name of the animal cannot be modified. Choose wisely!
- You can own one of each type of animal at a time.
About animal stats
When you purchase an animal, you will notice that it has four different stat categories.
Better stats make your animal stronger and more likely to win races!
| Stat | Details |
|---|---|
| Age | How old the animal is, strongest in the middle |
| Health | How well balanced their diet is |
| Energy | How well fed they are |
| Experience | Gained through winning and taking part in races |
Feeding an animal
Each type of animal can be given specific provisions only. Buying a provision feeds it straight away to your animal of that type.
- Provisions wear off over time, so keep your animal fed to keep its energy up.
- Feed a mix of different provisions to keep its health up.
!provisions store
!provisions buy <name>
Example:
!provisions buy hay
Viewing purchased animals
You can view animals you own and their stats.
!animals inventory
Sending an animal to the races
Ready to go? Send your animal to the races with a bet!
Bets must be at least 5, and can be up to double the price of the animal.
!animal-race <bet> [animal type or nickname]
Example:
!animal-race 300 Horse
Want to join in on a race? Enter your animal in before the race starts with the same command.
Only animals of the same type can race each other.
How races work
- A race starts 1 minute after the first animal is entered. Races can't be started early.
- Players joining a race must bet at least as much as the first player's bet.
- Every race has 6 animals. Empty spots are filled with computer-controlled animals.
- The winner receives all of the bets in the race, or double their own bet, whichever is greater. If a computer-controlled animal wins, nobody is paid.
- Your animal gains experience for taking part in a race, and gains more for winning.
- Animal races don't use the server's game cooldowns or bet limits.
