Environmental events are rare events that can occur while a player is exploring the world.
Every 15–30 minutes, the game will select a random player and check if an event can occur at their location. If multiple events can occur, one is chosen at random.
All events require that it has not occurred within the last 30–60 minutes (for any player), and the selected player has moved within the last 10 seconds.
