Barbarian Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 I had a slight accident. *cough* I had two chests, one containing a stack of fireflies, and I burnt some trees that looked far enough away to me, but apparently they weren't and the chests burnt....with all my precious stuff. But anyway.... I thought the fireflies were toast but then night came and there they were hovering in the same spot. But I only get the option to examine them, not catch them (yes I am holding a net). Has anyone else experienced this? Do they need a night to recover from the trauma of being released or something? Really hoping I can catch them again. Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/37138-firefly-problem/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamazacat Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 As far as I'm aware, you should be able to catch them straight off the bat. Have you tried pressing CTRL whilst trying to catch them? Have you tried with a different net? Have you tried relogging?

MaxStrategy Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Tamazacat is right, try relogging : ) The chest wasn't next to the water or something strange right?

Barbarian Posted June 4, 2014 Author Share Posted June 4, 2014 Exiting the game and reloading seems to have worked - thanks. ^^ The chest is next to a path. At first all I got was 'Examine 27 fireflies' or words to that effect, maybe it was a glitch because of them getting released from the chest when it got destroyed. Now all I have to do is spend 27 nights catching one at a time, since they disappear when I catch one. Hoping all 27 are still there.

orian34 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 fireflies don't despawn and you can catch all 27 in all night... Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/37138-firefly-problem/#findComment-494065 Share on other sites More sharing options...
spencer320 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Just keep spamming the space bar and make sure you have 3 bug nets.Sometimes during the day, I'll run around and hit space bar randomly with a bug net equipped and I'll catch fireflies.

Barbarian Posted June 4, 2014 Author Share Posted June 4, 2014 I did not know that. I shall go and try it now since I know where they are. Thanks both of you. ^^ Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/37138-firefly-problem/#findComment-494074 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbarian Posted June 4, 2014 Author Share Posted June 4, 2014 Well that was weird. I tried but it didn't work, so I waited till night to try and there were no fireflies. I panicked for a second and then checked my inventory and realised that when I swiped at them the night before with my net I'd caught all 27 at once and hadn't noticed. Now that can't be right can it? But still, I have my fireflies so I can't complain.

JYM Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Fireflies always remain in a stack. There is a bug that when something is just burned, then that spot is glitched, so you can't do some things like rebuild there until re-logging.
