Poop Dropping into the ground with last update...

[fergusmcnamera]

With this last update, poop is dropping into the ground so I can't collect it. I don't have a dung beetle yet so no idea if that works. It does still float so my workaround it to force feed critters while swimming. Anyone else noticing this?

Hello, i have kind of the same problem, poop is droping, but it is not droping into the ground, it is just not visible, but if you look around and move the camera at the right place then you can see is info bubble and then pick it up, pretty anoying probleme, please fix this asap please

[Dr. Pinë]

Yes, same issue, ran in single player with no mods. Poop is visible for a split second then it's either gone by going under the earth or it goes invisible when it hits the ground. Either way, going to need an update to fix it. I'm specifically testing with the Phiomia.

Yeah, invisible poop atm

It's very annoying, but I've found that feces are often accessible (i.e. the interface box for them come up on the HUD), even if they are just below the terrain and cannot be seen. It does require quite a bit of circling and tilting up and down a general area, usually crouched, to get the correct angle to access them after a creature relieves itself. It's then possible to use "e" to gather them as long as the box is up, but I instead always use "f" to get those around the one I "found".

Edit: This also works for eggs.

Personnaly it's the first glitch that I decided made the game not ready. To annoying and doesnt cover all other QL and graphics bonus yet. Back playing evolved for a few monthes

Yeah same. But have noticed that it sticks out of the underside of ceiling tiles if dino stands on top of the roof and takes a dump. So make a makeshift dino toilet platform until fix maybe if u need the fertilizer for now heh :)

Poop and eggs fall through foundations. Also, eggs disappear if dropped on the ground.

Poop drop through foundations for me too. However as I said earlier make platform if you really need the poop (for taming dung beetle), place a foundation and raise it up then surround it with ceiling tiles, park dinos on top and go under to collect the droppings hanging under them when they drop em.

Eggs are for me somehow unaffected by this bug however (thankfully).

Excellent advice.

As I stated in my previous comment, at least in my game, both eggs and feces are falling through the walkable mesh for both terrain and platforms and apparently coming to rest just under them. However, eggs (and especially the larger ones) are usually taller than the feces produced by their respective creatures. Also, it could be that the eggs you see are on top of a feces or another egg.

Ya! I am still having this issue too. It's definitely given a negative impact to the gameplay experience

==========

Disappearing Turd Solution... build a small building, and put the Phiomia on top. Grab it easily from underneath...

1. Place 2 Foundations
2. Place 4 Walls, front is open
3. Place 2 Ceilings
4. Put some temporary ramps on, and get 2 Phiomia on Ceiling.
5. Remove the Ramps, and add Stairs to front.
6. Grab the Faeces from under them
7, Add Compost Bins below it, and Storage for Thatch
8. Decorate it up, mine looks great now... Stairs, Railings, Posts on all edges.

Poop Squishes when it touches the ground some places you'll see it slightly out of the ground otherwise poop on a ceiling and grab it from underneath

My solution was, remove from the drive and forget about this game for like 5 years, if these incompetent koala bears (read: the devs) release patches like this.
