spelunker achievement
so i have been trying to get the achievement but nothing yet i think i am doing something wrong when it comes how do i start it
i was speedrun to the cave and just enter and leave i thought that count as one and i do this to the all 10 caves
but i didnt get anything
also i heard the in the first of the game i have to die and cannibals will grab me and hang me with my leg and this where achievement start i grab a map and go to the other caves
the question is is this correct ? also do i need to explore the whole cave or just enter or leave ?

plus there is a cave inside a cave i should go to this cave so it can be count in my TODO list ?

I think he meant that you dont have to die to get the map, you can just go to the cave for the map. Its the one next to the biggest cannibal village

Spelunker is based on trigger points, and can most easily be tracked in game via your to-do list. Generally if "explore X cave" is crossed off in the book, you hit the trigger spot for the achievement. This does lead to some issues where you can explore the entire cave and not get credit because the actual trigger is the one entrance/exit you didnt use, or inversely you could pop into a cave and barely move before it counts as finished.

If you just want it over with and arent afraid to use console to do so....there's a list of the trigger points in teleport command format on the wiki already, as in, there's already an available list of exactly where to teleport to trigger each "explored cave" credit. https://theforest.fandom.com/wiki/Spelunker

As for getting the map. In single player, dying the first time takes you right to it which is what makes that the easiest way. That cave exists in game either way though, and can be found without dying (and must be found in multiplayer since you dont get drug there on death in MP). You are looking for the main village climb entrance to Hanging cave/cave 2 if you are referencing wikis or maps to find it. That entrance leads straight into the chamber with the map and compass.

I got the achievement a while ago so I can't really go and double check, but I have referenced these spots to help others get the credit. Sometimes they have to walk around a bit to make it trigger but those spots do seem to still work. At least the ones I've recently helped people get. Though normally players aren't fond of console commands for achievements so what ends up happening is I go teleport there, take a picture for them to reference, and they go find it "normally" instead. Means I usually only get to test 3-4 spots at most, and usually only the ones they struggle with (wet cave is a reoccurringly problematic entry for many it seems)
