[Oxyd] [16.6] Frozen Biters

Post by staviq »

I have noticed some biters are frozen and not moving, even though they are in radar range, and there is quite a pollution source next to them:

Top left. They are completly sill and not moving, and not animating.

I have disabled all mods and tried again, but they are still not moving.

Same thing. If biters get out of you sight, then they have freezed (You still can observe them from map). If you build transport belt toward biters location, step on belt (and start moving to them) and open map, then when you approach enough they begin moving around.

I've been experiencing frozen biters, too. It's been this way since 16.0 and first I thought that biter aggression levels have been reduced.

This is what I saw in 16.6

I tried to activate them with some artillery shells, but they didn't care

And now in 16.7, I'm getting some attacks again. But most of the biters are still stuck.

I haven't been anywhere near them or used artillery against them since the patch, though.

I have the same issue. And now with the artillery there is a new side effect : When artillery attacks, bitters must attack the artillery, but they stay stucked.
But, after a while, I decided to go to kill them manually, and they disappear (I SEE them on my screen, and they disappear), even some of them are moving before vanishing. It occurs only if I stay out of range and after 2 or 3 seconds. If I walk to them, they attack me and never disappear.
Not all the biters disappear, but a large amout of them.

While they do try to move to my artillery train if they're not frozen already, they will get stuck and stop moving when I move the train out of their range.

I can confirm disappearing biters, but I guess that's intended for biters who're unresponsive. I've seen disappearing robot army bots that tried to reach an unreachable target on an island. That mod uses the biter pathfinding code, so I guess it's intended to remove entities with pathfinding issues before they cause any stability issues.
