Issue: Is Jasmine not supposed to be able to run or something? When I had to follow Maui to the beach during this quest, Jasmine wasn't there. I checked the map, and saw that she seemed to be slowly making her way to us. When she finally came into view, she was walking. Every other character would've ran in this situation. (Also, at the time, I was hanging out with Jasmine, and she still didn't keep up with me. Checking after the conversation confirmed that she was still hanging out with me, but for some reason insisted on walking to the sandcastle.)

NPC location indicator is sometimes wrong https://youtu.be/Ju2g1P_dVY8

In this example, Stitch is allowed to be on the Plaza Island but he is currently indicated to be at home.
But when I go to his home, he is not there.
When I go back to Plaza Island, he's suddenly there.

Also, sometimes when an NPC is indicated to be at home, when I go to the map, they are OUTSIDE their home.

So if they are supposed to be at home, but also not allowed to be on the map where their home is located, then they get moved to wherever they are allowed (?)

The letter says he will be staying in his Lab and he is showing that he is supposed to be home but when you go to the map it's not showing him ans when you go to his home he isnt there. These pictures are to show that yes he is unlocked, no he isnt showing on the map at his house, he is supposed to be here and it shows him as supposed to be home (sorry the color went nuts but he is turned on for this area), and lastly to show that he isnt home even though it keeps saying he is

PC-EPIC GAMES This happens in my game too.... Also i think i found the issue that makes some NPCs to turn to ghosts that we can pass through them and they don't walk anymore. And it happens only when i'm at Storybook Vale, where i placed Flynn Rider house, i think is Flynn that is causing this bug. I think it happens when he is showing his picture to other NPCs.

I suggest not getting Aladdin's Dream style in the event until you actually unlock him... i just did and his character bugged into my game, was standing ON TOP of the Scramble Coin board when I played with goofy, I went into one of the restaurants and saw him standing there, couldn't interact with him but he was moving his head and stuff but just not acting like other npc's. I forgot to take a screenshot before I closed and reopened the game but the bug stopped once I did.

Platform: ps5
Issue: sometimes characters become glitched where there is no collision with them and they won’t move, you can walk right through them, and if you’re actively doing something, like harvesting crops for example, they will not throw out the extras. This occasionally happens inside buildings as well, and it’s always when they’re standing by the exit, so if they get stuck like that, you cannot leave the building in some circumstances because the only prompt is to talk to the stuck character who won’t move.

PC-Epic Games Please fix this issue with Flynn Rider animation when he is showing his wanted photo and the other characters are FORCED to wait he ends that animation, and then, they get bugged, they can't walk, they get no tangible form like a ghost, we can pass through them. This is really annoying, even the characters that are following us are forced to wait Flynn finish to show his picture, and then they get paralyzed, and i i'm forced to stop what i'm doing to go to fish cuz is the only way to make who that is following me, to go out from that bug and appear at my side and be free to walk again. Sometimes when i see Flynn rider coming in my direction and i have a character following me i run away, i try to avoid to get too close to Flynn, so he don't can caugh my follower in this trap.

Platform: Switch

When npcs are set as companions in Storybook Vale they regularly get stuck. I haven't taken screenshots because it is so frequent. Merida gets stuck at the door of Chez Remy. Olaf disappears. Some time later they reappear and dump all their bonuses at once, or they don't appear at all and you have to go back to find them and tell them you no longer need help.

PC-Epic Games I'm noticing that a lot of players are here complaining about NPC being paralyzed, and i think they are not paying attention on what is causing this issue. I please ask to the team responsible for fixing bugs, investigate Flynn Rider animations-interactions with other npc's, that i've been reporting this since days ago. There is this specific animation when he shows his wanted picture to another npc that is forced to stop what they are doing until Flynn's animation ends and they get paralyzed. This Issue is caused by this specific animation of Flynn Rider and I witnessed this many times.

If a character is walking toward another one to start an interaction/speech bubble talk, they cannot be asked the join (the option is not available).
Not sure if intended but maybe replace the option with something that indicates the player has to wait.
