Cant reach vasagatan

[CCPenguin]

I am playing multiplayer with a friend, but when we are 800 meters close to vasagatan, the raft changes direction and we cant get any closer. How do i fix this problem.

That's strange. I would either build a few paddles, lol, or possibly just go the opposite direction till a new one respawns and see if that one isn't buggy.

you can reach it with the help of the wind.. just be sure to check regularly from your radar.

If you can't reach it, then you haven't tried long enough. People need to understand that the world is created around the raft. Just go with the wind, the location will disappear from your radar and sooner or later will appear in a new place. I just went with the wind until Vasagatan location showed up in a place I could get to. For me it was when it showed up to my far right, then I just set my sail to go sideways and made it there.

for me the vasagatan respawned when i was about 2000 meters away from it if that helps

The raft does not change direction unless you tell it too. It constantly goes in one direction (with the current I suppose) and if you have a sail, you can make your raft go left or right and slow its forward progress but never stop it going forward or go backwards. Once you get the steering wheel and engines, you can go in any direction.

The receiver screen shows large islands (green dots) and story islands (blue dots). You need to set the frequency to the story island you are interested in. The top of the screen is in front of the receiver (the direction you are looking when looking straight at the screen) and not the direction your raft is going. If your receiver isn't oriented correctly, then the top of the screen isn't what is in the direction your raft is going so it can be confusing. This can be problematic if your raft got spun by colliding with an island or other raft before you get the steering wheel.

also just so you know. story locations do regenerate their loot. story elements will not regenerate but resources etc will be on respawn of the island. a great way to get more of those awesome tangaroa coins too.
