WatchEgg

WatchEgg turns PEAK's Nest Egg into a cooperative escort objective. Keep the egg moving, protect it from dangerous impacts, bring it to campfires, and recover it from the latest checkpoint when it breaks.

Main Features

• At the beginning of the Beach segment, one random player receives the Nest Egg and immediately holds it.
• A player may carry the egg continuously for up to 20 seconds before it is automatically dropped.
• Timer sounds warn the carrier while the hold limit is running.
• Selecting another inventory slot while holding the egg drops it instead of storing it.
• The player who throws or drops the egg cannot immediately catch it again while it is airborne. Other players may still catch it.
• The egg does not break when it collides with any player's body. Normal terrain and object collision rules still apply.
• Pointing at a grounded egg gives it a golden glow, making it easier to locate.
• Food created by a broken Nest Egg cannot be eaten.
• A broken-egg counter is displayed on screen.
• A new checkpoint is saved when the held egg is at least 30 meters from the previous checkpoint in full 3D distance and the carrier reaches safe ground.
• Dropping, throwing, rolling, or falling with an unheld egg beyond 30 meters does not create a checkpoint.
• After the egg breaks, the host can press Y to spawn one replacement egg at the latest checkpoint.
• A replacement egg stays fixed and protected until a player picks it up.
• A campfire can only be lit while the Nest Egg is within 20 meters of it.
• Outside the Airport, negative status buildup and afflictions are blocked while normal stamina consumption remains enabled.

Important Notes

• The NoInventory feature is intentionally not included in this build.
• The egg still uses an inventory slot, but changing to another slot forces the egg to drop.
• Only the host can create a replacement egg with Y.
• A replacement can only be created after an egg break and only once for that break.
