Biters don't react on pollution anymore

Post by realvictorprm »

Hello,

I've a savegame in which the biters don't move anymore although there is much pollution around them. This also means that biters don't grow anymore due to pollution.
If I come near them they start moving again but nothing else.

Is this somehow a known issue?

Do you not get ANY attacks?
Does pollution reach spawners and gets consumed?
If yes and yes then post your save please.

I don't get any attacks by polution. I think the polution isn't consumed by the biters.

The server map is using mods but even if I disable the mods the behaviour is still the same (that's why I did not notice it).

Thanks for the report however one of the mods you're using (or one of the players on the server) set game.forces.enemy.ai_controllable = false. If you set it back to true they will attack.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
