Confirm or Deny Lawless Resource Spawn

[CaptainNDB 2]

I haven't seen anyone from the Wildcard/Grapeshot team confirm or deny this last patch was intended to kill resources on lawless islands.  Right now, nothing is respawning like it has been, which seems to match the tone of a lot of other previous glitches.

It would be greatly appreciated if someone from the team could at least confirm or deny that lawless is now behaving differently on purpose or not.  If the respawn kills are intended to depopulate the islands, fine, but it would help if we knew that so we could start migrating.  Either that, or admit it's a bug.  If it's a bug, it seems like a pretty pressing one.

For reference, I'm on PvE on the Siren server, square L5.

EDIT:  This was fixed by the devs not too long after.

I would also like to know this as well. Many hours and patches have past since this crap and no word???

They are trying to force us to join large companies or sail for supplies we need. If you're a lawless dweller just spawn on a freeport next to your zone and build a raft or sloop, fill it with mats, then sail back.

It's way faster than waiting for resources to respawn.

Or just sail over to the freeport on your upgraded boat and fill with mats before sailing back...  Either way, it's up to us to figure out the workaround.

They are looking into it as confirmed here:

That says absolutely nothing about the resources in lawless regions. That's a reply to questions in regards to cheating, exploits, and conduct.

I guess you read the first paragraph then stopped right? 

You even "liked" the post 21 hours ago.

The dev did comment on it being either broken to begin with our broken now either way they are "thinking about what to do"

if its covered in foundations of course it will despawn everything , same as normal islands try removing them and see what happens or are u too scared to lose an area 50 miles from your base

We swapped all our foundations for pillars and things are spawning now. Not as fast as before but at least it's re spawning. 

[Khazador 9]

It seems before only things in the immediate area would kill spawns now as like Ark everything kills spawns in varying areas. Gates kill as bad as foundations, Pillars and fences are less offensive, not sure about the lighthouse or buoys. This absolutely needs to be adjusted or this game will be as dead as Ark.

It is a bit ridiculous. Most of the islands are very small and the radius at which the foundations block resource spawns are ridiculously large. This is not ARK, they should not impose this silly mechanic on this game. Furthermore, this is one reason why most of the official servers in ARK were shit, people would spam foundation claims and block resources just because they felt like being trolls.

" Resource respawn should now function as they did on Lawless servers prior to v10."

Thanks for reverting back
