If you have a beefalo bonded to a bell and you leave it hitched by the beefalo station, it still teleports with you if you do one of the following actions:
- Jump into a wormhole
- Teleport via lazy deserter activated by another player
- Go into a portal opened with a Wanda's rift watch
However, the teleported beefalo will still stay "hitched", won't follow the bell anymore and the player will be unable to mount it. The only ways to fix it would be either to reconnect to the game, or have someone go back to the base and do the "unhitch" action on the empty beefalo station. The glitched beefalo in the new destination then needs to be loaded again (by any player) to continue its following behavior.
Proposed fixes:
1) For Wormholes: make the beefalo stay hitched to the station but then don't teleport it (same behavior is already used when teleporting using Wanda's Backtrack Watch). Reason: if a player went through a wormhole without a beefalo and left it hitched at the base, they didn't mean to take it with them. Otherwise they'd ride it to the wormhole and it wouldn't have been hitched.
2) For Rift Watches and Lazy Deserters: make the beefalo still teleport with the player but unhitch it from the station automatically (same behavior is already used when you take it to the caves). Reason: player likely is going to a boss fight and they forgot to unhitch their beefalo. Very frequent case is preparing to fight on top of a beefalo and being teleported to a boss location by another player, in which case teleport will happen from the base and the player won't be riding their beefalo to the teleporting device/portal.
1) Have a domesticated or partially domesticated beefalo bonded to a bell
2) Build a Beefalo Grooming Station, hold the bell in your inventory. Use the "hitch" action when standing near the Beefalo Grooming Station. Make sure it's not in heat, heated beefalo aren't allowed to be hitched.
3) Walk away, the beefalo won't follow you anymore (like it's supposed to).
4) Do one of the following actions:
- Jump into a wormhole
- Teleport via lazy deserter activated by another player
-
Go into a portal opened with a Wanda's rift watch
5) The beefalo is now stuck in the teleport destination, unable to be interacted with.
