[1.0b213] Animal Tracker

[Thalyn]

Currently Animal Tracker (3/3 at the very least) is not always marking creatures. This includes both on the compass and in the game world (when you're close enough). Snakes in particular seem to be impacted by this but I have no easy way to verify whether it applies to other creatures as well, simply because I have to accidentally stumble upon them to know they're not working.

The appropriate 20-second buff is present and continually refreshed when this happens, indicating a suitable creature is in range. It just isn't marked in any other way.

This also seems to Animal Tracker 2/3 but not 1/3. This happens in both multiplayer and single-player for me.

Me and my multiplayer companion spotted that, too. He picked up 1/3 and seemed to have zero issues at all with regards to the small critters, but would often get markers for ones that simply didn't show up for me.

That I've seen so far it would appear that 3/3 has trouble marking snakes, rabbits, chickens, and coyotes, and I suspect wolves as well. This would seem to suggest that it's simply not correctly applying the lower tiers of the perks, which would also mean that deer and boars are unreliable (though their less reliable spawn conditions make that much harder to test).

NB It is probably worth mentioning that this persists as of b257, meaning it impacts 1.0 release as well.

Happens to me too, but i noticed the skill is not counting heights, only plain terrain, if an snake climbs a car, it wont show the marker but the ability works, will say there is something but cant show.
