The Whirlpool is a feature that allow most animals in Mope.io to be hidden from all entities and their effects, and appears only in the Ocean. It was added on November 26, 2016.

Technical

• Like their land counterpart, whirlpools are holes that animals can use to hide in.
• Whirlpools are essentially hiding holes, however can only be found in the Ocean biome. They have no smaller variant, and the only difference is the color of it.
• Unless they are under the influence of a Special Ability, all animals except for the Black Dragon and King Dragon are able to use them.
• When inside a whirlpool, animals cannot be affected by anything outside or inside the hole, except if a Fox or Arctic Fox uses their "Pull From Hole" ability to force any animal within the range of tiers 1 to 11 out of it.
• There is no limit to how long you can stay inside a whirlpool, but bars of animals will slowly decrease, meaning you'll have to emerge eventually to get water/lava/energy.
  • However, with whirlpools, by holding W as you exit the whirlpool you will automatically dive. In theory, you can stay by a whirlpool without having to emerge near predators forever (as long as your animal drinks water).

Appearance

Whirlpools look like their land counterpart, except they are blue. There is a dark blue circle in the middle, whilst a lighter blue circle outlines that. A dark blue circle outlines light blue ones, and vice versa. Unlike hiding holes, whirlpools are constantly moving, giving the impression of a swirling pool.

Trivia

• The Octopus can disguise as a smaller whirlpool.
• Whirlpools have the same mechanics as a Hiding Holes.
• Whirlpools do not spawn on lakes.
• Sea Monsters and Krakens can create a giant Whirlpool, but nobody can hide in it. Instead, it sucks other animals in to be eaten, and is mostly different to this one.
• By pressing the dive button while going out of a whirlpool, the player will automatically dive upon leaving. By re-entering after having done this, it is possible to survive forever.
