Trapper hut is ♥♥♥♥♥♥

[AH-Chiron]

6 pelts in 35 days with 15 traps. . . . wtf. When I was doing this manually I had more pelts than I could fit. Needs balancing.

Have you assigned some villagers to a higher priority for this kind of job?

[DaJokeThing]

where do you place your traps ? they only work well when theyre surrounded by trees, especially those big ones (so dont cut down this area and take care with your lumberjack resident. otherwise place them a bit way from your village, preferably in the opposite direction of your lumberjack.
another thing is priority mentioned before.

It often doesnt work.

I had a trappers hut with 7 traps.

Put it top priority, and after 40 in game days.......0 pelts.....0 meat.

There seems to be a bug when they set them, nothing happens after that.

[Decado]

Yeah I reckon they’re bugging out

[Pie Rat]

for me they just get stick on the trap trying to harvest it, but cant so they just walk in place forever until u do it manually. definitely needs to be looked at.

[Zanji]

mine just crashes when i try to even do anything with that hut now. HA

traps break, and more importantly can become unusable you need to disassemble the trap then put it back down I've had the same 9 traps since day 2.
the forest area has been completely cleared
they also need bait a trapper should do that stuff ive never even tried did things manually until I had the hunter cabin then just let it run out it's usefulnes I have 9 traps all broken sitting in the same place since as I said day 2

When you have a pond of fish, what happens if you over fish it? You run out of fish... Same with rabbits and traps.

i did noticed when your villigers walk around , they bug get stuck when a wolf or something is in the path . if you dont keep an eye on them . its just a waste of time and effort thinking you getting something when it isnt even working....

I have 7 traps, my trapper constantly is replacing them, baiting them and collecting the resources. I've had no issues. He does get stuck every once in a great while.. but I moved that particular trap and he seems better now.

[GreyHounD]

No issues as well.
I've 8 traps lined up with decent space between in wooded areas. 3 traps are 'on stock' to replace broken ones as well as bait.
As mentioned from others before:
You might check your priorities on traps (buildings) and your trapper(s) jobs.
Raising Hunting and Agility let you get 'more faster'.
Good hunting!

for the record, traps are not magically generating pelts. They actually harvest the nearby animals so if you put them in an area where there isn't any rabbits then you won't see much production. If you find a spot with tons of them it'll produce more frequently.

mine are literally in the middle of my camp. they are all piled around each other. they are all just inside a brown area (Forest) on the map. my village is Due south of Haerndean. before the first road. 9 traps I have never had a problem with them. they are almost always full.
unless this has changed recently I think they due magically appear.

We have 5 traps, run buy AI setup. We got loads of skin and meat.
Need to make sure AI is foraging berrys or mushrooms, for traps, we got 10 of each
Need to make sure AI is topping of production of new traps, we got top of 3
AI does a good job at keeping us well fed.
