Okay gonna make this a thread. So just to add in the conversation not included in the thread:

  • This happens while the world file is on a server and also while the world file is played solo.
  • There is a very large build in the world.
  • Issue occurs whether standing near large base or not.

Yep that all sounds right

#

I can send you a link to a clip of the issue if that helps understand it at all?

and this happens to everyone when playing on the server?

tough urchin
#

yeah 😦

I'm not entirely sure what is happening here. I'd normally say it's some kind of ping or loading issue - packet loss - but the fact that this is happening in single player while not on a server proves that to be false.

I would also say that it still could be the build just being too large, but what I am seeing in your video doesn't really allude to an overly massive build - though I do see a lot of plants which could also be adding to the issue.

#

Can you explain when this started happening, and what you guys were doing when this started?

we had got to the dragon boss to upgrade the flame, we wiped a few times and decided the call it a night, i believe the next day a member of our party built a little house for us to get rested near to the boss and i believe that same day is when the server started having this issue

#

ive tried deleting the building that she built but the issue is the same, i also planted alot of conifer trees but have since removed all of them and issue still remains

#

we do also have alot of animals

#

I would say remove the flame completely over by the boss, pick plants, pick up animals and try to reduce the strain to see if any of these might be the issue.

#

Actually - the copy of the world you have on your computer is completely dispensable right?

#

Since it's on the server.

Okay - so me a favor. Start going around and removing all your flame altars. Each altar you remove, log out of the game and back in. Stop if the issue fixes and note which one it was.

tough urchin
#

I'll give it a go

#

If you remove all the flames and the issue persists after the last restart of the world, then you are very likely looking at a world corrpution. If it stops before then, it's something in the last altar you removed.

#

i removed the altar at the main base and its fixed it straight away it seems

snow perch
#

Okay. so you are looking at something in that base causing the issue - whether it's too many plants or the build being too big. or just too many animals - something is causing the game to have issues.

#

it could also be that we basically took over a town, destroyed all the existing buildings and then built new ones. I imagine if there was any kind of patch to do with the buildings we destroyed then maybe the game is getting confused because the building its trying to patch no longer exists

#

just a theory

#

but thank you for your help! at least we know the save isnt completely ruined, just have to find somewhere to move to!

snow perch
#

Probably not. The state inside an altar is maintained past/through any game updates or changes to the underlying structures.

If I were to take a guess. I would check how much storage you have, specifically magic storage and see if consolodating it down if you have an extreme amount might do something

#

Basically look around for extremes, lots of plants, huge buildings, lots of animals and systematically try and eliminate them as an issue.

#

Start with things added recently and move back.

tough urchin
#

we do strictly only have magic chests (because we all steal from eachother anyway) so its probably the fact there are around 30 huge magic chests all near to eachother

snow perch
#

I mean - I have 174 of them without issue on one base. xD

tough urchin
#

hmm, we'll put it down to user error lmao

snow perch
#

I was thinking more than that 😄

tough urchin
#

we dont have alot of stuff hahaha

#

in the log it says we have 300+ chests so idk where its getting that number from

snow perch
tough urchin
#

I will, thanks for your help again 😄

snow perch
#

no problem. I hope you guys are able to save your hard work somehow. I am glad, at least, that it isn't a world corruption.

Spent some time today just getting rid of boxes, animals, plants and some of the newer base decorations but it’s still happening so still trying to pin down exactly what the issue is
