Chester hopping endlessly to nowhere

Quote

There are no mods here that would affect Chester in any way,

@FroobLoob Disable all your mods and see if chester still faces this issue. Mods can affect other areas of the game that may not make sense with what the mod does itself (Where's My Beefalo mod - which shows you where Beefalo were on the map - makes it so you can't attack Dragonfly. Why? Who knows, but it's a thing).

With no mods enabled, chester works fine for me.

Thank you for this, but it ended up fine and he fixed himself, but thank you for the advice! 

If it happens again, consider using c_count("chester_eyebone") to make sure there's only this one eyebone in the world, I suppose. If there's any mods that add other chester-likes, it's entirely possible they made a different item that also uses the "eyebone" tag, which confuses chester.
