Deacon_Blue Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I hadn't played this game for a couple months. I just came back and started a new world. When I kill things/cause items to spawn via pig king/whatever sometimes the items go flying across a screen or two. What's up with that? Is there any way to avoid that happening? One of my spiderhats went into the ocean because of it and it's a minor inconvenience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neosaurus Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 That's a bug. And also hilarious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the truthseeker Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 The pig king one specifically was done so the gold wouldn't get stuck "floating" above him, as well as other created/killed items getting stuck floating above structures. it seems the solution can cause "ricochet" effects sometimes. I'd rather chase after items than have them permanently stuck though, IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my spiderhats went into the ocean because of it and it's a minor inconvenience. If that is happening consistently than there are only 2 things that could be causing the issue, #1 would be a mod that you have installed, #2 would be a bad install of the game. Start by disabling your mods and seeing if you can replicate the "flying items" issue. If not, then try to single out which mod it was that causes the issue and alert the mod maker. If you still get "flying items" when all of your mods are disabled, then try deleting the game data and re-installing. For future reference, this sort of topic belongs in the "Bug Tracker" thread.

the truthseeker Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Please see my prior post. My items sometimes go flying as well. Running the latest hotfix, and no other bugs besides the known ones Klei has mentioned before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deacon_Blue Posted November 5, 2013 Author Share Posted November 5, 2013 I don't have any mods installed at all. It's not all items, maybe one per hundred or so. Really I just want to know how to keep them out of the water if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really I just want to know how to keep them out of the water if possible. There is no way to intentialy keep the items out of the water in this situation. since you do not have mods installed, and I have yet to run into such issues myself, it can be assumed that you have a bad install. Try re installing and see if the issue is resolved. one more thing, which version of the game are you using? Stand alone or steam? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Letter W Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Oddly enough, the only thing I've had do that is seeds. Every now and then a morsel or something does but I can stand in my camp and start counting how many seed piles go skidding across my screen.

KidneyBeanBoy Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Sometimes it happens to me whenever a bird manages to land INSIDE a rock and drops seeds, which another bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the truthseeker Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Well, I now can have items land and bank shot off of objects like rocks or structures. I think it can be cool (and since it always doesn't go flying off when items fall, it's kinda fun.) Looks like we just invented DS pool!
