i would have to imagine that wherever it is would not be claimable...

I had that happen with one and not the other... was it fixed, or is it just random and the RNG really disliked you for a while?

I hope you get some help, as hopefully that will solve our issue too. Most of the island is respawning in other companies' claims, but we have one large section that used to be wood that is not, and one that had the only grain we could find on the island not respawning. Makes it hard to survive, but at least we have a lot of beds on which to respawn after dying of scurvy or whatever... lol

No problem... just glad that I at least knew the answer to one of the issues going on

have you tried clicking the icon that looks like a chat bubble with an exclamation mark on the left side while in the inventory? can't help with the missing bow part... sorry

have you tried going back to the zone you were in when you were the higher level? that happened to me on about the second day, and I became the correct level once in the correct zone again. For some reason, it was looking like we had left lower level chars in Freeport and when i respawned there, i was apparently on the original char from there, and getting back to the zone I had been in, reverted it to having the levels I had gained. Weird, but hopefully that helps

Yea... can't really tell where the beds involved were, but Freeport/Lawless areas are not really conducive to spawning on beds, even if they are on rafts if too close to the unclaimable lands.

Thank you.. someone who knows how it really is! I will. I have been involved in too many EA games, alphas and betas to worry yet. For those who cannot still (and still want to play an EA game), I hope whatever issues are having can get addressed soon. They are pumping out the patches, and I think the spawn around buildings limitation still needs adjusted, but it is more playable than yesterday, and that was more playable than launch.

Yea.. I think the issue is, that behind the scenes your first company may have been identified as Company00001, and when you remade it, even though the display name was the same, it may have been Company00002... so it is a different company. As to the rules, no idea. I just know that this was/is an issue in Ark and the rules took a lot of fixes to get manageable. My fear is that they put in the rules from the Ark code, without the interface to adjust them. And again, I am just guessing here from the issues we had in Ark. It could be a totally unrelated bug. Either way, I hope they address it soon, as it was a major headache in Ark and is starting out to be the same here... Good luck to ya'all with it...

for blue, tame a cow and get milk... you get a lot more at a time too

move to one of the colder climates... if you get stuck, just take all your clothes off... die pretty qyickly! lol

I don't think the issue is with killing them... for some reason, when harvesting them at times you can pound on them for a long time (with axe, pick, sword, pike etc) and get nothing until they finally despawn

It sounds dopey, but have you tried chopping it in the water where you killed it? For some reason, I seem to do ok that way, but it hates when I drag it to shore....

To the OP, were you in a company that you later left after claiming the land? If so, the original company settings may have had it where land claimed belonged to the company and you lost it when leaving. Sad to say, but that is the way the setting works and it caused a lot of issues in Ark too. If on a PVE server, unfortunately, I don't think there is an in-game mechanic you can use to fix it, other than waiting 3 days until it appears abandoned.

from patch notes for v7.0: - Fixed a bug which prevented resources from respawning. Please note when this update goes live, it may be a few hours until they naturally start appearing again.
