    Taking a wild guess, that the majority of the community would prefer keeping their thralls over not having the living settlements feature enabled until it is fixed.

    I am so glad I did a simple test on a live server of planting a single crafter for a day to see what happens and it poofed. I feel so sorry for those guilds that repositioned all their crafters only to have them disappear at some point. Think I'm on a break from this game for a while. Will log in weekly to preserve builds, but it looks like Funcom did not think this one through and I fear a delayed rollback to replace poofed thralls.

    This is what our group did 2 days ago. We lost all our thralls, even rescued ones disappeared within an hour or so again. We're on a private server so our admin turned LS off and even spawned our named thralls back for us. It's been 2 days and all our thralls are still at their benches. 🤞

    If you have a bar active you do need a heckload more chairs than you ever think you will.

  • @that1slyfox
    @that1slyfox 2 місяці тому +4

    Attention exiles! Funcom is planning on disabling the living settlement feature for the official servers this weekend. Until then, if you play on an official server, you must select every single item in your base a thrall can interact with -- chairs, beds, fireplaces, workbenches, etc -- and switch it to 'Disable Thrall Use'. And I do mean, every single item. If you miss one this will not work. Once you've disabled all items, your crafter thralls will no longer move at all but this does mean they will no longer vanish into the ether.

    Glad I started a new save after the update. As I get crafter thralls I just put a fence around the benches so they can't wander off. I have had 1 npc teleport out of a locked room to reach my alter but I've since fenced that in as well. I'm on official server so hoping that keeps them at home . You can also disable the feature on individual thralls if you are worried about it on a server you have no control over.

    Well I already know that since I started playing a single player game to test things out.

I think they teleport because I lost another taskmaster on an online server even if the whole wheel of pain was surrounded by fence.

    Currently playing on Siptah. I've been sporadically testing thralls since Living Settlements went live. While I haven't had any vanish, I did watch a Tanner wander off of her bench, meander through my base and out the front gate. This is, just to say, that while I haven't had any just outright disappear, I have watched them attempt to wander off. I'll give your fix a shot later to see if that fixes the issue, however.

    how would you change the server setting without loading the save first which causes the crafter to be deleted on load. all the barkeeps are instantly gone once you load the save, including ones placed on cauldrons not just bars.

    I see a barkeeper in the background. In addition to the bug where the crafters randomly disappear, there seems to be another bug where all barkeepers just blipped out of existence immediately when the patch got applied. Does turning off living settlements also prevent loss of barkeepers? I turned off living settlements and then loaded up a pre-patch single-player backup file, and my lost crafters were all back in their bench inventory. But the barkeepers are all still missing. Any trick there, or did you just get/spawn a new one already?

      It seems so far to work that way as well.
      So far with testing with a few janky thralls and they stoped running away from home, to date. Following what Wak did I wont know for certain until a few days have passed if it worked.

    So I have personally noticed thralls showing up outside the map far bottom right outside of the lettering as well even went admin to see one thrall with the living settlements enabled and had 3 thralls far outside the boundary of the game also that spot where you showed but with the living settlements off so far haven't had any thralls disappearing from the base and going somewhere else this is something that needs to be fixed so thralls don't vanish all together as yes the living settlements make the game feel more alive but with them just outright dying for no reason this is just stupid and out right fucked that funcom can't have a fix for something they implemented if anything they should make it so these thralls moving around have a home to return to much like the fighter/ archer/ bearer thralls placed out in the world where they are placed is where they spawn not this random stupid spot, this shit makes the game unplayable with living settlements on

    I think we will get GTA 6 before Funcom fixes anything.

    Do not put too much hope into this... I am soloing on xbox, unchecked living settlements a couple of days ago, but 1st, my derketo archpriest ended up at 0-0-0, 2nd, there is a 90% chance that the game crashes when you try to put someone in the bench ghost spots :( yeah, age of bugs it is.

    So the way to fix the latest bug is to reverse the update? SNAFU.

    I think I have a better fix give them a bed in your base and gruel in their inventory we have no more problem with thralls disappearing 🎉
