Question about Unicorn

[PurpleKrow]

So I have my own, unofficial server. One of my server members found & tamed a wild level 20 Unicorn on Herbivore Island on the Island map. Later I found a 2nd one, a level 70, on the river banks of the Southern Islets.
I posted a pic of both of us with our Unicorns to an Ark Facebook group & people called me a cheater, that I must have spawned in the 2nd one. Well I certainly did not & even if I did I wouldn't have gone with a whimpy level 70 when our max dino level is set to 300, lol.

Anyway, they continued & continued swearing that wild & even after taming there is only 1 per map, ever.
From my understanding, & what the wiki USED TO say (course it's changed now to that description ^ ) was that only 1 wild spawned at 1 time & after it was tamed another 1 had the chance to spawn, maybe that was wrong idk.
So my question is that rule of only 1 on the map tamed or wild on officials only? Because we definitely had 2 wild ones spawn on my server & we have no mods or increased rates that change anything about creatures or the way they spawn.

Devs have confirmed only one is supposed to spawn per map, wild or tamed. Uploading that tamed one should enable a wild one to spawn back in, and transfers can be used to get multiple tames on a map, but no wilds should spawn with any one unicorn present.

We have a unicorn on our official server, we have taken the unicorn to another server to have it bred. We now have 2 more unicorns. So maybe wilds do not spawn in however you can breed uni's and have babies

The Unicorn is a variant of the Equus distinguished by its white coloring and the horn protruding from its forehead. Only one wild Equus of these special variants exists on a map at any given time. If tamed, it will remain the only Unicorn on the map and no more will spawn in. Players can utilize cross server transfer to find Unicorns to breed with. Unicorns can breed with other unicorns they can not breed with an Equus.

so long as u know they were tamed legit - who cares what anyone else thinks.

Depends.
On the unofficial server i run we use the Ragnarok map that allows you to set Unicorns to a couple of different settings:
Only one (includes tamed or wild)
Only one wild (means unlimited tamed)

And you can specify the "cooldown" duration between when a Unicorn will spawn, so we have them spawning roughly every 24 hours.

We dont have any rates for the Unicorn turned up at all & we are on the Island map.

Yeah I know, they were just being ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ more than usual on this post of mine. I generally don't give a crap what people think but I just wanted to ask about the spawns.

Yes I know what the wiki says, I've read it already as I said in my original post, which is why I'm asking why 2 spawned on my Island map server.

Yes I know Unicorns can breed with other Unicorns, I wasn't asking about that because we have already bred ours twice & have 2 babies, but my question was about wilds spawning becuase we had 2 wilds spawn, one was tamed then another one spawned.

This doesn't explain why on my server 1 was tamed & then another 1 spawned wild.

Well, considering Wildcards good Track record in messing stuff up i wouldn't be surprised if you find a third and fourth one without tempering with them yourself ;-)

Me either. But if it was different between Unofficials & Officials I would tell every off on my FB post, lol.
