two odd things: i had left here last night and started today loading straight in, and when the last wolf showed i asked a friend to joing and tame it.

Never got a JIRA.

And still happens with Atavists and scorpions too.

Takes around 10-15 minutes then the lower level creatures will begin to spawn.

 

I didn't tame anything the previous time i linked, and anpu mentioned atavists.

 

Yeah just activate the Atavist wave battle. Finish it, then wait 10-15 minutes in the scene. The lower level creatures will begin to spawn in.

...and so on. i did not kill the third wave, but they all showed up

 

I think that’s this bug? https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/f...ed-69712-desert-wolf-encounter-resets.169991/

 

Is this behaviour bugged because encounters should not reset, or because they should reset on a longer timescale?

Today I've observed similar behaviour in a Mistrendur barbarian plains encounter:

1. Get pulled into the encounter, kill everything and harvest all I could find. No NPC showed up that I noticed, but I wasn't really looking.
2. Exit to menu for a comfort break (without leaving the zone).
3. Resume playing in the plains encounter, because I didn't realise this was possible and I was curious.
4. The encounter had reset during my ~10min absence, I kill and harvest everything again, this time a pilgrim shows up and I get a card from him.
5. Hang around for a while, try exiting to menu and immediately resuming, try exiting to menu and wait for timeout before resuming, through all of this the encounter does not reset in ~20min.
6. Quit game, go for lunch.
7. Log in after lunch, resume playing in the plains encounter, it has reset again. Kill, harvest, no NPC.
8. Hang around for ~10min, no reset, exit to menu. Wait for timeout, resume playing, still no reset.
9. Exit to menu again, wait another 10min, resume playing, scene has reset.

After exiting to menu, if the scene had reset when I resumed then I would be at the default starting location, otherwise my location in the scene was preserved.

Every time I resumed play, the scene loading panel included the message "Something along the way has caught your attention" same as when first entering the scene.

I don't know whether any of the above helps pin down the issue but figured more data is better than less.

 

you exiting to menu and waiting is manually resetting it. that is expected behavior for all scenes and not the bug being described, in which the encounter resets while i am still standing in it.

Details: Near Desolis, random Traveler encounter with Atavists. Eliminated them, great threat message, killed 3 Knight Purifiers, threat ended - no researcher or monk or others. More atavists, another 3 Knight purifiers - no researcher or ecologist or others...

This issue is still present in build 1365. After completing the Atavist encounter (Killing all Atavist Unifiers, dogs and Knight Purifier), after some time, Atavist Unifiers will start spawning in the scene again. and we can do the Knight Purifier wave battle again.

- enter a Sheep encounter
- kill all the sheep
- get threat warning
- lions appear
- kill three lions
- get end of threat warning
- wait 10 minutes or so (did NOT exit to menu, that is known to reset the scene)
- sheep reappear
- start killing sheep
- do NOT get threat message
- see a sheep corpses that I didn't kill (uh oh!)
- kill three more lions
- do NOT get a threat end message

The crazy part is that I got a Bounty Hunter both times!

 

I was able to get a third wave of sheep and lions, but no NPC, and then no more sheep spawned for at least half an hour. I think the root cause may be whatever is letting the sheep respawn.Then I tried mining and harvesting everything in case the scene might not have been marked no-respawn, but the nodes are still empty.

There's a small chance that DC's "idle reload" might have kicked in, but I think that's supposed to check for being in a town scene. I tried sitting down after the third wave so that I would notice if it happened.
