This post may now be irrelevant because this happened in the hours running up to the 10.0 patch and just hadnt taken time to report this yet. We had tamed our first higher level bears and had some success killing alphas and level 30 army of the damned so we decided to load up our schooner the green bastard and take him into the closest ruins to explore and see what they were about. This was only a couple tiles away from us so we got there pretty quickly and upon crossing the border with about as much chunky loading as it can handle without crashing to desktop we got into the zone. Almost instantly we noticed one of the bears was about 5ft off the deck and about 5ft in front of the ship and making ground on us. We were laughing about it and thinking... well this probably wont end well for that bear.. when suddenly we get hurricane weather and a sotd right in front of us.The bear is now a couple hundred feet in front of the boat and above mast height. when we turned, he turned with us. We had read about being able to glide through the wall and teleport your ship and crew through it so we thought we could escape this zone by turning the bear into the wall. As soon as he hit it we teleported back into the region south of the ruins and promptly got disconnected. At this point we started trying to respawn on the boat and got three different outcomes randomly it seemed. 1. We would spawn on the boat and it would be blinking in and out of existence(sometimes even upside down) After a moment and trying to get back on schrodinger's boat we would crash to main menu or a bed selection screen. 2. bed selection screen would just loop us back without even getting the action bar to popup on the bottom of the screen before failing. 3. once we started feeling like maybe the schooner and bears were lost we started just trying to go home but got all kinds of crashes and errors going home lets you select a bed but you dont spawn or even worse end up in the water behind the vanishing boat again. After trying these in loop for 30 minutes with a huge patch incoming and no idea how it would effect our situation we eventually got one of us into a bed at our main base and claim. I was able to get to the bed on one of our sloops and i look down at the bed and gaasp to my friend.. "dude, this timing is crap but it looks like hackers are trying to troll us right now" i saw a stack of players inside the bed frame that i was unable to click on. These players were all level 40 and 43 and all named "player" my friend and i start ranting about region locking china and how can this game have such poor hack protection that people can spawn high level generic players under a bed that you cant remove and it sinks your ship. We were going from amused at early access hilarity to enraged pretty quickly. everything was frantic so i had not yet noticed what was really going on. After the sloop was sunk, and we were about to rage quit we saw a string of the both of us dying rapidly. Holy crap! what is going on right now! I ran to another bed we had tried, and sure enough sleeping "player" by the many inside the bed. Now that im calming down i realize wow... these "player" look a lot like you and i dude... i think we were creating clones of ourselves every time we tried to use a bed here. I went to every bed on every boat and in structures and had to break the beds to get to them but then dragged no less than 40 clones of me and my friend into the ocean to die. We were the chinese all along!!!! This was hilarious to us, we understand its early access, and quite honestly... BRAVO! for such a mind bending sequence of bugs. This was fun to be a part of and sorry we didnt report the details sooner. Seems you may have cleaned the clone issue up by having better recognition that the player is currently on another server. We see this often in crash to desktop situations where the player still online sees the one that crashed still standing there like nothing happened. and hes getting errors telling him a player of the same account is already logged in or something similar. The flying tames thing still seems legit and we now get on our bears and make sure all 4 feet are on the ground after every transfer or rubberband so we dont end up with them flying away but still part of the boat again. EDIT: we could see the boat actually moving on the map while this was all going down and neither of us were on it. Eventually it stopped moving and i tried to go to the bed on it and was droped in the ocean about 100ft from the boat near one of the bears which promptly died to sharks. It stopped moments later and i could see hundreds of clones of us falling off the back of the ship. and death message spam for me and my crewmate.i was still i the armor i was wearing when this started and was able to swim to the boat and we still have it to this day. There has been no death of the floating bear to this day. If you find him trying to exit out the top of a server please return him.
