Invasions with no mobs

[Nomadiator]

I am getting invasions but no monsters ever show up. Anyone else having this issue?

That can happen if your base is extremely large. (larger than the raid circle.)

Yes, it happened to me too. Several items prevent monsters to spawn. If you covered the entire area of the event in range of those items, you could have an event with no monster.

Raid mobs dont appear within the raid circle, they appear outside and rush in. If I stay in my well designed base, they don't make it inside and many run off eventually. If I exit the gate they will come for me.

The wiki says there is a second hidden circle that is bigger than the red circle. The spawn in that circle. If that (bigger) circle is full of base items, then the mobs for the event don't spawn.

i only have one bench, a very small house and the evasions are not triggering any spawns. no idea whats going on, this never happened before with the same setup.

Its possible that your base is too small. If you have 2 or fewer base objects you can't be raided (with one later game exception). Its possible, if this is your only base, that the program is triggering a raid but your base is too small to be affected by a raid so no mobs are generated. If this is the case you should report it as that is a bug that shouldn't be happening. If you only have 1 small raid proof base raids should not be triggered at all.

This is a list of base objects in game. You have to have 3 or more to trigger a raid.

simplest reason is that the mobs are getting distracted by other resident mobs. my base is in the middle of crypts and villages where skeletons and ents spawn and sometimes i have to go out and find the mobs because they are out raiding the local wildlife.
