Is there any way to unstuck Kelvin? He keep costing me so much time and progress.
It's like the devs have never played a game before. NPC followers ALWAYS GET STUCK.

I've traversed a fair bit of the island and he really doesn't get stuck, sure he goes around things that the player just hops across but really he's pretty good at keeping up, also if your ass don't want to watch him, either leave him for dead or leave him at camp

He's walked into sheer cliffs and gotten stuck, and at the moment he is at the bottom of a lake running in circles for the last 20 min.

Kelvin is also stuck for me against a cliff face. Will not move despite following requests etc

I have the same issue

Yeah you really can't have a cliff base if you want to use Kelvin unfortunately.

Lakes aren't too bad but he does occasionally get stuck under the ice.

I had to dismantle a substantial chunk of my base, merely because Kelvin was stuck under the floor, refusing to come out, and denying he could perform any task but "Follow Me"

The base was built on stilts, over running water. I'd asked him to get fish, and to drop them on the first deck, but instead he fished under the deck, dropping them back in the stream.

whatever they do i hope they never make it teleport, teleporting followers are the worse thing ever. we need better pathfinding.

My Kelvin is stuck underneath the cement helicopter landing pads on the beach. His last command was 'stay here' and I cannot reach him. I don't know what to do. Saving and re-loading did not make him appear back on top, he is under it somehow...

You can teleport him to save cordinates within save file, if virginia is still alive just copy her coordinates and paste in Kevins. Kevin is TypeId\":9 while Virginia is TypeId\":10.

What if both are stuck at the opposide end of the Map....?
No way to find out the Player Coordinates?

I'm not 100% sure but I think in "PlayerStateSaveData.json" there is "\"player.position\",\"SettingType\":4,\"Version\":0,\"BoolValue\":false,\"IntValue\":0,\"FloatValue\":0.0,\"StringValue\":\"\",\"Protected\":false,\"FloatArrayValue\":[-1153.16614,138.9528,-235.961685]" basically search for "\"player.position\" and thos might be the coordinates "[-1153.16614,138.9528,-235.961685]"

I just quickly checked it, so thats why uncertain.
