Gracefulmuse Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 I have been trying to use a critter sensor in my most recent build, but it seems to not send signals correctly. I had the sensor set in the room below to "1". My thought was that when a critter was dropped off, the door beneath would close. It works, but only sometimes. It seems like 30% of the time it wont activate till there are like 4-5 critters. Other times it wont activate at all. But if I set it to 0 while critters are in the room it works, but only that once. I'm super confused.... please help?

beowulf2010 Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 Not sure what's going on on in your specific case, but the critter sensor is a bit weird in a couple of ways. 1) It goes active when there are *more* critters than the number it's set to. So if you want it to go active only when there are 4 or more critters, you need to set it to 3. 2) It counts eggs. Including eggs being held by an autosweeper (easy egg dropper) and in containers. (I can't remember if they count eggs in Incubators, sorry.)

Yunru Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 I use the exact same setup (with the sensor set to 0) and have yet to have any of the problems you describe O.o Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/103157-is-the-critter-sensor-bugged-or-am-i-just-bad-at-using-it/#findComment-1158206 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gracefulmuse Posted February 22, 2019 Author Share Posted February 22, 2019 Great, that's why I wanted to ask before I filed a bug report. I think it may be my computer weirdly enough. I tried it on my husbands laptop and it does not have the same issues. I'm gonna try reinstalling the game to see if that fixes it. Otherwise I will submit a bug report with my system specs. Thanks everyone!
