Fixed Jawbo not being able to reach the shearing station when it's placed against a solid on the right.

Since when can Jawbos be sheared?

This is still kind of a problem. First, it means I can cram as many critters as I want into a tiny room as long as there's a mesh tile to a larger pool of water. I'm not overly concerned about that. However, the Fish Release needs to reference the number of critters in the room instead of the pool size. Otherwise, I need to create discrete pools to ranch my orehulls and probably certain other aquatic critters. Or possibly mesh tiles and pneumatic doors need to bound distinct pools. Ideally, I want my dupes swimming from ranch to ranch. I guess I could use mech airlocks and solid walls, but that just wrecks the vibe of it all. 

 

In this example, all of these orehulls are prefectly happy in this little pen, but there's not enough kelpoles to feed them all. If I set the fish release to 8 critters, it takes the inventory of both ranches (and anything else in the attached water). At a minimum, I want the fish release to reference the number of critters in the room, not the pool.

I want to know more about this one specifically. Is this just for vents or other buildings too?

[SPTD]

A problem occurred after the Update today as showed in picture below. Is there any solution?

[GorgonZola84]

Since the update the game crashes when i load a save, and i can't start a new game anymore. Uninstalling or verifying game files did not help, reverting to the previous version did but i'd rather not do that obviously.

Crash log

Error in SaveLoader.SaveLoader.OnSpawn at (0.00, 0.00, 0.00)

agree, I think think fish release should reference room size only, but its not the end of the world as there are other methods to do the same thing. with clever use of the dispenser, you could still manage eggs manually alongside sweepers to maintain your ranches. or find a mod that does this. I couldn’t find a specific one to fix this issue, but I did find “no sensor limits” and “ranching overhaul” that may add this functionality. hopefully you could tweak it so it still remains vanilla while only touching the fish release.

[NewWorldDan]

I think the fish release needs to look at both the room and the pool and use whatever is smaller. You could have multiple pools in a large open area - one room. On the other hand, if mesh tiles were boundaries for pools, that would solve the problem and probably make a lot of people unhappy.

Wouldn't that just be a room of its own? sorry I'm not understanding the difference. Mesh tiles and pneumatic doors do a good job at separating pools within the same body of water. I think that would solve the problem you are talking about right? Unless you are saying you want to ranch more than 20 critters in the same room, then you would need a mod to increase the critter sensor count. I still think aquatic critters should use the room/pool size rule to calculate misery/happiness as that makes them a bit unique from the land dwelling critters.

Mesh tiles and doors are considered part of the pool. To make things work correctly for me, I had to replace my mesh tiles and doors with solid tiles and mechanized air locks. 

Where I was running into trouble was balancing the number of orehulls with the number of kelp plants. And it still has to match room dimensions to be counted as a stable to make the grooming and shearing stations usable.

Ah, that's the part I wasn't getting. Haven't gotten that far into the dlc yet past swimming and bubbling. So it's the aquatic stations that need room requirements, got it.

[BLACKBERREST3]

Sorry, had to go back and read the original post you made, I get the problem now. I think the fish release has always been a problem and doesn't keep an accurate count (unless they've fixed this over the years). It's always been easier just to move eggs and bypass the fish release in the first place. I usually separate my underwater pens with mesh doors and mesh tiles which is what you were trying to go for. Going straight for the eggs is the best bet. You can setup dispensers that drop off eggs to a location that dupes can't reach, but critters can flop or hatch out of. You can also manually relocate eggs in the early game if they are wild. Since everything is underwater, this might work for you. This was adapted from the eggshell conveyor builds I was working on. Automation can be setup to retrieve eggshells, eggs, or both on a timer.

 

[AnguaStark]

Does anyone else have rancher dupes endlessly trying to call kelpoles to the grooming station and kelpoles ignoring them because they're both critters and not critters?

Edit: nevermind, they were actually trying to groom orehulls and orehulls couldn't approach because there was a hard tile (a fish release) to the left of the grooming station. Once I removed that, the orehull jumped on the grooming table but missed it by one tile to the left.
Will keep watching if kelpoles cause any issues there.
