Rooby Fans Beware!

[Dindunuphen]

Rooby is bugged out when added to the base and won't smelt anything but if you put them in your party and let them walk around the base with you they'll use the primitive furnace just fine. Just a heads up for anyone who likes them and wants to use them but runs into this issue. ^_^

Mine kept getting stuck on the perimeter and it's the only one that does it. :T

That happens with a lot of pals. They should stop doing that once the path finding bugs get worked out and updated so when we reload or return to base they aren't on top of random places and unable to move. ^_^

Wiuldn't say it's a rule, but I did notice they tend to walk around, looking all bambi-cute, but go to actually cook or smelt less than other fire types, unless assigned.

I have 3 Rooby's to smelt and cook and they don't have any problems.

[Sir Harlz]

I noticed they worked at first and then would stop cooking and smelting so I switched backed to foxpats.

I have not had this issue, using the singular Rooby I caught. It smelts immediately after waking up and takes the usual rest and food breaks.

Strange. I couldn't get mine to work until after i started leveling and it randomly started working while my Foxparks was in the hot spring.

The AI pathing seems a bit worse with the latest patch, hopefully gets smoothed out soon

[Stellar Remnant]

mine works fine added to base

When 0.1.3.0 dropped path finding broke for a lot of people then after a small hotfix it seems to have gotten fixed for most people, at least from what I've observed from the new Discussions slowing down on my end, but it'll get better hopefully with each update and new piece of content added.

Yeah, it's not just Rooby, so I wouldn't worry too much about it. It's something that needs to be fixed for the bases. For me, every fire pal has this issue. Only works if it's in your active party.

Seems that way for a lot of people but most of my pals are actually working just fine aside from spawning on top of random places where they can't move whenever i reload or return to base. Just posting so others know they're not alone. ^_^

If you have any wall torches, or ignitables on a second or higher floor, pathing for any kindling pal can break down completely. That's what you're probably experiencing.

I used them multiple times on 3 servers till I found a nice stable private I liked and never had them bug out... They had no issues using the smelter or the campfire even later cooking grill.

My 4 story house bearly poking into the base circle acts as nothing more than a super slide and I've never once unlocked the torches with my points. ^_^
