Dinos and Respawns

Post#1 » Wed Feb 17, 2016 2:20 pm

This is my first post on the forums and i'm not sure on the best way to lay it out so i'm just going to post the issue.

#1. Every day for the last 3-4 days we have had dinos in our base just mysteriously disappear. No death notice, no trace, nothing. Now that this is a recurring daily problem for my tribe having to re-tame lost dinos we are getting incredibly frustrated. This leads into my next issue with how its happening.
#2. Respawn radius of resources. we are having issues with Rocks, trees respawning to close to our foundations that it is clipping through walls/dinos and such. This is causing problems for base security and the bigger issue, possibly pushing our dinos through the map, which is why they may be mysteriously disappearing with no death notice.

These are just the few issues i wanted to bring up and wanted to hear others feedback or what solutions could be taken to fix these recurring problems.

We experienced the same issue of dinos disappearing due to resources respawning on top of them at our volcano base before the wipe.

Possibly raising the respawn radius slightly could help fix this, in the mean time it is best not to break rocks etc. inside your base so that dinos can't occupy the space they will respawn in.

ok, respawn radius for resources was 0.2, i have increased it to 1.5 so we shall see if this affects the disappearing dino issue.
will be applied next reboot

Looks like you need to play with these settings more. Lost a ptera and have a rock that keeps spawning partly into my base and blocking the door :/

Hey Muddy,
Sorry i have been waiting for this v236 patch that was meant to be released like 4 days ago ...
With the server issues previously i restored an older config file when i reinstalled everything which till set the radius at 0.3, next reboot it will be 1.5 and no longer respawn near your base.
As the weekends are the busiest times, i will reboot at 5am Monday.
