| OrganismBeginReproduction Method |
Use this function to command your creature to reproduce. There are many conditions on whether your creature can reproduce. If these conditions are not met, an exception will be thrown. The easiest way to make sure all pre-existing conditions have been met is to check the CanReproduce property.
If you call this method multiple times in the same turn, then the last call will be used, and all previous calls will be ignored. This method is also asynchronous, and a ReproduceCompletedEvent will be fired when your creature has actually given birth. The time between start and completion is 10 ticks.
