question about the noose trap

[Psycho Predator]

once a cannibal gets strung up can the other cannibals release him/get him down?

[Mentok The Mindtaker]

No, but it's a good idea.
You can release them though by cutting the rope on the log weights.
They drop, stand back up and are stunned for quite a while, but eventually it can reduce their aggression factor if you string em up anough times.
They will run off after a while wondering why you didn't just kill them.
It's not too easy though as other cannibals will come to their defense as they think that you are going to kill the one in the trap.
Just try not to hit anyone nearby.

theres a cave not far from my base where enemies keep coming from and its in a small forest so i was thinking about placing multiple ones in the small forest not far from my base but wondered if they could be released or would still be hanging when i come to check my traps later.

[Mentok The Mindtaker]

They would still be there, but the others might still be hanging around.
If you go far enough I think they simply won't spawn a path through trapped areas.
They might though, so it's worth a look.

When a cannibal is strung up and you go to sleep, he'll sometimes just disappear over night. Maybe it's a bug, maybe someone releases him, maybe he manages to get free, I don't know. But over night they sometimes disappear.

well at the moment ive got about 12 noose traps all placed in the forest so heres hoping :D

Rather surround your camp with happy bday traps.
even if it doesn't get them if creates a wall until you reset it that they can't get through
place two happy bday traps facing each other and you can even cage a spider mutant to do with as you please

thats not a bad idea actually
