characters in homes but not in there?

[gracex2109]

hi, i just wondered if anyone else is getting the problem where on the map it says a character is in their house, but when i go in there, they aren't there? and i leave and re-enter a few times, and they're still just like gone? can anyone help? thanks

I'm having this issue with Elsa right now. It's frustrating because it's caused a game breaking bug. I'm supposed to go talk to her to start the singing ice quest (quest list says it's unlocked and i need to talk to her to start it), but I can't talk to her to get it started because she's not in her cave even though the map says she is. I've tried everything. I tried highlighting her on the map and going in and out multiple times. I tried restarting the game. I'm stuck and I can't progress the game anymore because I can't get something I need from her.

Quick workaround: on the F menu in the map, de-select the person. Then select them again. They should be in the same spot, but doing a bit more existing.

Before I figured that trick out, entering and exiting the house a bunch of times would eventually find them outside the house.

I am having this issue with a character and the workaround/nothing else seems to work. There is a house icon next to her picture as if she's home, but she's nowhere near home. And when I enter her home, she isn't in there and when I walk to where she is on the map, she isn't there either.

I experience the same thing all the time. What I have discovered is they randomize where all the characters are when you exit AND ENTER as building. Why, I couldn't say but it's ridiculous. You can easily test this and see it happen by repeatedly exiting a house and watching where everyone is on the map, some will change.

So frustrating, why would they execute this "function" upon entering a building? It's either a bug or a bad design choice. Like hey Moana, you were just inside your house but now your at the beach (or gone), wtf? Sometimes eventually they will randomly land back in their house after a few to many tries, or meet at the front door, but again, random.

One of the other really fascinating bugs is when you have someone join you, and you enter/then exit a building they will randomly be placed somewhere on the map and have to run back to you, unless you portal and they will be with you. What should happen is obviously the character should stay with you. This is also easily tested and proved as well.

It is my hope they they stop add new stuff for a few months and clean up all these bugs and annoyances, do some QOL changes.

Agree. I love this game but am definitely not purchasing any packs for it until this game breaking bug is fixed. None of the workarounds have worked. Daisy Duck is stuck in one place on my map, but she's not actually "there." It says she's in her house, but she's not. Right now I don't have any quest lines where I need her, but I know the day will come and my game will no longer function.

I'm right there with you! I hope they fix this issue soon.
