Sgoceantrawler

Based on game build 714014 | Last updated: 2026-03-08

Overview

SGoceantrawler is a StateGraph that defines the animation and sound sequence states for the ocean trawler entity (used by the Ocean Trawler boss in Don't Starve Together). It selects animations based on the current operational state (idle, lowered, raising, lowering, catching, etc.) and the content level of the attached container component (empty, medium, full). It does not contain logic itself but serves as a declarative mapping of states and transitions triggered by events (primarily animover).

Usage example

The stategraph is loaded automatically by the game engine when the ocean trawler entity is instantiated; no manual setup is required. It is referenced internally via the entity’s state graph system.

-- Internal use only — this stategraph is assigned to the trawler prefab:
-- inst.sg = StateGraph("ocean_trawler", states, events, "idle")
-- Modders typically interact with the trawler by commanding actions (e.g., raising/lowering), which trigger state transitions.

Dependencies & tags

Components used: container — checked for :IsFull(), :IsEmpty(), and existence in onenter handlers. Tags: idle, busy — applied per-state in the state graph; no global tags are added/removed by this stategraph itself.

Properties

No public properties — this is a stategraph definition returning a StateGraph object; no instance-level state or configuration is exposed directly.

Main functions

No custom functions — SGoceantrawler defines only State blocks with onenter handlers and event callbacks. All behavior is executed via state entry logic and EventHandler callbacks.

Events & listeners

• Listens to: animover — triggers transition back to idle state (or next post-overload state) upon animation completion in every state except idle.
• Pushes: None — this stategraph does not fire custom events. It only reacts to system-provided events like animover.
