Thrall Camps Not Respawning!

[Celestaux]

I have tried everything to get this to work. My little shack is far away down near the Croc Boss pond. Yet the camps for seemingly miles around will not respawn any NPCs.

I tried to lower the LandClaimRaidusMultiplier but the setting was removed so I went into the the server setting files and changed it manually setting it from LandClaimRadiusMultiplier=1 to .25

I also put my NPC respawn timer to max and still no NPCs at any camps. Including camps I never even went to before. They are all empty before I get there.

Please help it is kind of ruining the game for me and my friend.

It is Singleplayer and I host Co Op.

Any mods running maybe? Is this set like so in server settings? CampsIgnoreLandclaim=True (not that this should matter if they are super far away as you say it is).

What does setting that to "True" do?

[Celestaux]

Nope 0 mods I just got the game and started playing. Thank you for the response. I will try to go into server settings and switch that to true. Hopefully it works.

Just checked. It is set to true so that is not it unfortunately. :(

It's typically on by default, and I'm not 100% certain how much it affects NPC spawn rate as I haven't experimented with it, but I kinda figure its one of those settings that might be self explanatory in how it's named.

Anyways, how long ago did this start? Could you revert to an older game.db?

Could you verify your install files? Could you try backing up your entire save folder and creating a new character, use cheat codes and check out various camps to see if they are spawning then?

They only started after I had built my house. Which is down near the Croc boss. The camps not respawning are all the way up where I get iron. Dust Devil Ridge and all the camps around that area are not respawning. They are pretty far away so I even set the LandClaimRadiusMult to .1 and still not working.

I could try verifying game files but will that reset my server settings too?

I am unsure of how to revert to an older game file. I got an idea but I will try it... Do Shrines count against the camps not respawning? I put Ymir's Shrine on the cliff overlooking the house? Maybe that is "too" close still even with the .1 radius... If shrines can cause it.

Removed the Shrine (Which was still far away but closest structure) and still nothing respawning at the camps.

If camps ignore land claim = true then wouldn't that be the setting OP wants?

Because that reads like camps will spawn in land claim zone quite happily. With it set to false you'd expect camps to respect land claim zone and not spawn in his area.

Thanks Angela but I do already have it set to true and they are not ignoring it unfortunately (If the claim radius is the issue it could be something else.) :<

Spawn rate at max? put it at minimum.

I have tried it at both .1 and 10 and have gotten the same results of zero NPCs/Thralls at any camps. Which they are missing even from camps that I have yet to go to and kill as well.

Also when you set npc respawn timer to max you'll want it set low for faster spawns, not high.

Have you maybe put some kind of object nearby, even a single block or a torch seems to bug out the camps.

[Celestaux]

Nope nothing. Like I mentioned earlier though they are gone from camps before I even visit them.

Back up your server savegame for putting back later and try a new game and dump some things down in same area you have in current game, see if same problem occurs.

[Celestaux]

I am not sure how to backup the game but I will try. Also if need be I "can" start again all new if I have to. At this point I do not care if I have to start over aslong as the issue gets fixed. But id prefer to save it since my friend has put a little bit of time in it as well.

Just go to Steam folder - Common - Conan Exiles - ConanSandbox - Saved

and copy that folder for putting back later, a new game will overwrite it.
