Problem with Chester

[Ztalei]

So I had the eye bone and was using Chester but logged out. Then I updated the game a few days later and logged back in. Chester was walking around, but there was no eye bone anymore. It wasn't where my character automatically dropped it. (Previously, my character was automatically dropping it when logging out.) Any thoughts? Chester just keeps roaming on his own.

@Ztalei, Uh.... unless your game was realllly out of date the last time you were playing, it should've dropped the eyebone. But you can do a few console commands to fix it (assuming you're the host, that is).

 

To find any eyebones if they exist: c_gonext('chester_eyebone')

To spawn in a new eyebone if none exist: c_give('chester_eyebone')

Same thing happened to me when we were playing in an old world. Just make a new one and all should be fine

By walking around, do you mean fervently going in a direction (to where the eyebone is) or actually jumping around like a maniac aimlessly wandering and going absolutely nowhere?

 

if the former, then follow him; if the latter, do any of these:

 

• spawn the eyebone using the console commands DebugSpawn("chester_eyebone") or c_give("chester_eyebone")
• kill chester; if you can't catch him (because he's moving around) icestaff or sleep dart then whack him
• re-install the game
• sacrifice 10 chickens to Maxwell and hope that he fixes it.

Also, are you the host?

[Ztalei]

Mostly wandering around aimlessly going nowhere. There is no eyebone to be found. But the beefalo actually attacked him. Maybe I'll find an eye bone again some time? Thanks for the console commands though.

@Ztalei, If the console command didn't bring you to an eyebone, then it got deleted. So I'd just spawn one back in, and chester should start following you again.
