Do tentacles respawn in latest version?
I mean the tentacles on the ground.
I played once found they respawn really quick,like 5 or 10 days.
but in a new world,30 days passed and I find nothing.
I make all the monsters LOTS in the beginning,and if tentacles do not respawn it will really hard for me.:P

I don't think so. I haven't seen anything say one way or the other. Currently my base is next to a swamp and I've killed tentacles and have not seen them come back.

Tentacles don't "respawn" unless certain conditions are met (exp: giant tenatcle, 8ook that spawns tentacles).
They won't come 8ack in swamps after you've killed them though, you'll have to find more. (try finding all the "things" or going underground)

Why do you need tentacles?
I understand the 8onuses of a tentacle spikes, 8ut...
there are weapons of equal value which may 8e easier to get

It's a monster world,lots of hounds and deerclops and spiders,I even met 2 deerclops in 4 days.I need tentacles to protect me.
I really like the monster,cannot move and a high damage.
Really sad to know it can not respawn

Maybe use a mod?

Are there any mods that cause tentacles to respawn?

Is there a console command to respawn tentacles?

There is a debug spawn code if thats what you mean. It's listed on the wiki but i think its basically just tentacle.

Tentacles do not respawn on the surface. I don't think using the console is the right way to go about solving your hound issue; the console is an easy way to spoil the game if you become too familiar with it.

My advice: tentacles are not your friend. By the time you run out of them, you should already have pigs, beefalo, bunnymen, rock lobsters or even treeguards and mermen nearby to protect you -- or at the very least, enough teeth to make a trap circle.

Find a replacement. There are many to choose from.

For hound protection, spiders will work. It's not so much their damage as it is the distraction. Even Chester is useful against Hounds since he can pull the entire group away and tank it while you kill them off one by one.

Against Deerclops, you should be relying on explosives rather than creatures to kill it. His AoE will smash a huge group of spiders in a single swipe.

If you need weapons, feed four monster meat to a pig and kill the resulting Werepig. Use the two meat, pigbutt and two sticks to create a hambat.
Against deerclops my go-to technique is to spawn a treeguard and keep it close. It will usually win against the deerclops.
If not, drag it to a group of beefalo (if there are too many of them) to thin them a bit and get the drops from both.

Hounds are easily dealt with by Pigs. Easily. Just don't build houses too close to each other lest they burn to the red hounds.
