[Oxyd] 0.15.16 Biters no longer spawn after "pollution wipe"

Post by varenvel »

Hello , i started new map 6 days ago with few mods (but none of them modify battlefield and i asked and spoke with developer of said mods and he told me to post here) that "new biter nests" created by biters dont spawn biters at all , im not entirely sure if thats because of patch but it seams so as before patch i was constantly attacked by biters , and then after patch attacks stopped all together

at first i was sure its because i reduced pollution in same time a lot by having access to new modules so neglected that , but next day i was expanding and building walls till i noticed spawners are empty(i poked , attacked , even waited 2 minutes no biters spawn from these)


After some deeper loading saves , exploring and walking i found that only spawner created "after" world generation(ones made by biters) not produce any biters at all

i can provide modlist and save if that will be investigated further by dev

i actually uploaded both modpack and save

Also im not sure if this "is continues" on new ones created AFTER patch , and if its just localised save problem who patch broke something on just the save

Same here. They started up eventually but I killed several spawners in my new game without any retaliation.
My Mods:
Modular Armor Revamp - V16
Large Chests - V16
Agent Orange - V16

Yes, the spawners no spawn bitters and the bitters that were already spawned do not move or do anything only those that are far away work even though they do not get the pollution and do not send attacks or anything

It shouldn't persist. I fixed it in 0.15.17 and apparently forgot to move this thread. It's mentioned in the changelog as well. :)

Before changes the game works fine but since 0.15.14 (i think) the bitters dont do anything... The game has around 30/35 hours of playing

Huh, they are clearly spawning in that gif. Also, gifs aren't very helpful, you need to post the save if you want me to look at it.

Oh, apologies, I didn't notice the save.

Anyway, I see the biters setting up attacks normally as they should. Not all biters who spawn immediatelly go and join an attack, so it's completely normal for them to stay still. So, I see no problem in that save.

Yes, but normally they move, now they spawn and they are completely static without doing anything ...
Thats a normal IA? if you see yes i will trust in you but i think it is a rare behavior

If you as a player are not around biters don't move unless going for attack group.
Looking through radar makes it evident - all biters are static when watched through map.
