While the bug involved is still present, i know not everyone I've talked to about the subject quite understood the mechanics involved with their spawning and were calling intended features bugs accordingly.

With that in mind, brief explanation of what the actual bug is, just to ensure everyone is on the same page.

Mudballs respawn when the player is knocked out or sleeps. The only time their respawn function is called in the code is during the time fast forward function called by these actions.

For some reason the game occasionally skips the function (i say occasionally but some people have it far more frequently than others. I get it next to never, others get it like constantly.) Leading to them not spawning when they should.

Ok, i'm on day 22 (in my x playthrough) and again after visiting the farming side over the last 10 ingame days - even with sleeping in between there was not even 1. so not spawn at all from my view. in my last games i had the same problem too - ther was nearly anny, 1 time i had luck and found 5...but after that again...nothing

Best i can offer then is try sleeping after midnight but before 06:00. Some recent reports seem to indicate that helps.

Honestly can't give you anything else as its one of 2 ways to trigger a function call which calls the necessary function. Only ther option is dying, and it faces the same issues.

Yeah, sleeping only rarely fixes it.

depends alot on the person - but yeah, its sorta the only fix for them not being there besides dying. personally never had the issue of them not respawning, which goes into complications on trying to fix it.

I'll try jumping in the ocean next, see if the ratio is better than sleeping.
yeah i've had this same problem since 2020 or maybe even longer :slimehungry:
