What does? if you are referring to the tame claim issue then you'll see I said it's already been raised.

This is true, moving tames on to land and back to the ship currently fixes the issue, until the timer hits 7 days again. As for NPC, does giving it a job actually refresh the timer, so you don't have to move it to land?

Is it interesting big though or big square box big?

They didn't change it, it's unintended, I just tested it out ingame with another player, turns out it's an issue with tames on ships. Tames on land get timers refreshed just by rendering like in Ark. Hopefully the steps i've handed over to the devs pin-point the issue.

Guys, i did a test with someone in game and it turns out it's a ship based issue not land. If you tames are on land then timers refresh on render. I've provided detailed steps over to Dollie so hopefully that helps in pin-pointing the issue.

The issue is there is lack of knowledge (as it is not actually intended I don't believe) that you have to interact with tames not just render them in. I've had one monkey and one rabbit inside my base for for the past couple of months and i've not picked them up once. I can guarantee you that they are claimable because I haven't touched them. I shouldn't have to go round picking animals up to toss them on ground every week. Also with ships, there's no public knowledge that they needed to be boarded every 3 weeks, it was assumed, just like structures, that they need to be rendered, as was the assumption with tames. So no, they are not excuses.

I experienced this today. Network: EU PvE Any screenshots or video demonstrating the bug: See below Repro steps if available/applicable: Not applicable, but the ceiling had a railing and billboard on it and wall underneath, was over water, has been there for weeks with no issues CCC (if location specific, please include the CCC with your report): cheat TP N12 56531 354433 177 BEFORE: Didn't have a close up i'm afraid: This was what was sitting on top of it. AFTER:

It's actually been re-disabled due to an issue, but they intend to implement it again when the issue is resolved.

It's 7-8 days claim timer for animals yes. But rendering them in on ships or land is not enough to reset the timer unlike structures.

You want decay/demolish timers to be removed? How would you see the removal of abandoned structures in that case? I'm not saying the 10 day structure timer is fine currently, i'd prefer it to be 2 weeks minimum, but we still need to be able to remove abandoned stuff.

Maybe you should pay attention to the topic. It's nothing to do with visiting islands as it is nothing to do with rendering in ships.

It's not just ships, it's all animals whether on ships or in your base.

If you were honestly interested you wouldn't have edited your post to throw in the insult. The dude has no reason to provide you an answer after such an insult.

That's not possible, even if the wheel is unlocked you can't do anything with it.

So now that you can board ships in PvE, there's a galleon outside my base that was parked there about 2 or 3 days ago and i've seen no activity from it since. I decided to board it and have a snoop around. So I found there were quite a few animals on there and instead of all having the same claim timer, they varied like this: Bear - 03:03:06:08 Cow - claimable Elephant - 01:21:49:09 Bear - claimable Bear - claimable Giraffe - 04:23:28:58 NPC - 06:23:45:10 So this is evident that animals whether on ships or land need to be interacted with rather than just rendered. Otherwise they'd all have the same claim timer.

I'm only responding to your last point because you failed to understand the issue here. For example you go on about having an incentive for players to not build more ships than necessary, now I had 2 ships, yes just 2. I had a sloop, and a schooner. I stopped using the sloop when I built the schooner. I left the sloop outside my base as a back-up in case I ever lost my schooner at sea. I had no reason to step foot on my sloop. I had no indication that ships required boarding to refresh timers. I lost my back-up sloop. The issue here is not the need to step foot on ships before they despawn, the issue here is the lack of knowledge provided from the devs as to the mechanic for ships despawning.

Very last point on the latest patch notes.

They haven't confirmed anything yet, but they are aware of the questions raised regarding it. Hopefully they'll take a look at it and determine whether it is working as intended or if it is a bug, then clarify how it works. But for now there's no confirmation.

It's the fact that it was not (from what I can tell) public knowledge that you had to physically step on a ship to reset timers. Unless I missed somewhere that clearly states that, then it was assumed that render was the reset of timers just like building structures. Did you know that your tames claim timer expires even if you are online standing next to it if you haven't interacted with it for 2 weeks? They aren't based on render either, but that is not stated anywhere. So it's not about whether it is hard to do or not, it is about GS making these mechanics clear from the start.

Ah you never mentioned ships in your first post. But good to know. I guess building an Noahs Ark is out of the question then.

I wasn't speaking about tames on ships.

The fact that the animals are still there doesn't mean anything, i'm not talking about them disappearing like ships, i'm talking about them being claimable. How would you explain @Kummba being online and having rendered in his animals only for them to be claimed whilst he was online. As for ships, my sloop was left unattended outside my base for 3 weeks as I started using a schooner. I never touched the sloop and after 3 weeks it vanished. So yeah your animals may be safe after weeks of not doing anything with them but that's likely because no-one has come along and seen they are claimable. Would be interesting if you had someone outside of the company visit and have a look to see if they can claim anything whilst you are online though.

How do you know "it's all good" when you get in render distance? Animals don't display decay timers like structures do. So how do you know it's not claimable? Have a read again of what @Kummba said in their last sentence. It's similar to ships. If you only render ships in but don't physically board them they will disappear in 3 weeks. That is the same mechanic as we are talking about regarding the animals.

That may have been another issue altogether then. It is 3 weeks of inactivity for a ship to be removed.

Yeah you'll just have to wait 3 weeks for them to disappear. Depending on how long ago the owners abandoned it you probably don't have to wait 3 more weeks, but that would be max. They'll go soon enough as long as they don't board them as Kidori stated.
