Hareball

Based on game build 714014 | Last updated: 2026-03-05

Overview​

hareball is a lightweight inventory item that functions as a cat toy. It is perishable, flammable, and renewable, and is typically used to interact with cats (e.g., Abigail). When thrown and lands, it emits a sound effect. The prefab uses the perishable component to model decay over time, and can be replaced by spoiled_food upon spoilage.

Usage example​

local inst = SpawnPrefab("hareball")
if inst and inst.components then
    inst.components.perishable:SetPerishTime(TUNING.PERISH_FAST)
    inst.components.perishable:StartPerishing()
    -- Optional: Listen for when it lands
    inst:ListenForEvent("on_landed", function(e) print("Hareball landed!") end)
end
