#rocks are confused

pc/steam, keyboard and mouse, whatever the latest version is that isn't beta, seems to trigger randomly but relatively often, i can't force it to happen, it just does. observed from spring 1 year 1 onwards. i do tend to leave my game running for way too long but this isn't a memory leak issue (nor has my game ever crashed, which is cool), it occurs even on a fresh relaunch of the game.

i don't know if this has been reported yet or not, but in the mines, often rocks will just be in weird spots (i.e., in the ground instead of on the ground, slightly outside of bounds by a tile, or both below and outside of the ground). it's not a huge issue? but if the way down in the mine is under one of those rocks, sometimes the way down "disappears" (or you can only see the stick asset part that has the rope attached to it) because it's underneath the actual ground (though i've only had this happen once, typically it's still interactible but that time i couldn't even find it). this also sometimes occurs with grass assets above ground (although usually in this case the grass assets are floating in spots they shouldn't be). the grass doesn't matter too much because it doesn't hinder gameplay at all.

i believe, however, that the rock issue is the source of another issue, in that armulites often spawn slightly under the ground. they can't be hit by normal means when this happens, but if you break rocks around them, they suddenly pop back up to ground level as they should be and then are hittable. it's a bit like they're spawning too close to the rocks so their hitbox gets confused and shoves them underneath the rock (and thus under the ground). i haven't observed this in any other mob, only armulites. since i'm mentioning mobs though, i'd love for them to not be able to hit me after they're dead - death should cancel the mob's attack. also the death animation for some of them (especially armulites) takes forever, which wouldn't be a big deal if their drop wasn't reliant on that animation completing.

also, emma and dippa don't come to any of the spring or summer festivals, plz fix (they did come to both fall ones, i'll have to see about winter).

the mine/cavern issues may be unrelated, i dunno. but they're certainly a smidge bit inconvenient most of the time. i can attach screenshots if requested (i'll need a sec to get them though, it's a bit random when these things occur).

oh, and, another nitpick regarding emma as an npc specifically, i can talk to her when she's in her taco truck, but not gift her anything (despite the option of lmb to gift being present). i swear i don't even like emma and dippa i just notice things that irk me and they happen to have two things that irk me 😂

Hello BabyBlueberry! Thank you for sending these reports our way. 🙌 Since you’ve highlighted a few different issues, I’ll address each one point by point below:

  1. Rocks in the Mines: This issue has been reported by others as well. You can follow the discussion here: https://discord.com/channels/623097219628662784/1266993792951517204. The team is actively working on a fix.
  2. Armulite: This has also come up in reports, which you can see here: https://discord.com/channels/623097219628662784/1225421851350532258. We can confirm it’s the intended design for now and not a bug.
  3. For the Festival, our team has also confirmed that not all the townies attending it, including Emma and Dippa as well. So we can confirm that this is also the intended design for now.
  4. Gifting Emma: Do you happen to have a video showing this issue? That would be very helpful if you could share it.

I hope this covers everything in your report, but please feel free to let me know if I missed anything. Thank you so much! approve2

the armulite being meant to burrow actually makes a lot of sense 😂 i didn't even think of it that way!

as for the gifting emma section, i have no idea how to screen record. i can report that i did try various different angles around the food truck to see if i could gift her, and while the prompt to gift did pop up in most of them, any attempt just opened the shop or opened the prompt to eat the gift lol, if you know how i could screen record i would be happy to!

Yes, that's right! The Armulite has the skill to burrow underground before it hits you. ChickenShock_Cyn

For recording, feel free to use your phone if that’s easiest, or you can try Steam’s new "Recording & Screenshot" feature:

  1. Click the Steam icon (top left corner) > Settings > Game Recording.
  2. Choose your recording mode: "Record Manually" or "Record in Background" (recommended: Length: 60+ minutes, Quality: Medium, Frame Rate: 30)
  3. Launch Coral Island and play as usual!
    -If using “Record in Background,” recording starts immediately as the game launches.
    -If using "Record Manually", use the shortcut keys to start or stop the recording.
  4. To view your recording: Click View > Recording & Screenshots.
  5. Right-click the video > Share > Export video file.
  6. The video is saved in your preferred folder

Once saved, you can attach the video here. Thank you! 🙌 ✨
