Bug - Seams in the terrain

Post by Istaytaken » 22 Jul 2016, 17:07

First off, I'm a big fan of LiF, and have been since early in its development. I've seen it steadily grow and improve over time, but I've noticed that one weird bug is still around that's been here since the early access.

At certain places on the map, there are odd interactions between tiles, in a linear line that looks somewhat like a border. It's almost impossible to detect unless you're trying to build or terraform ontop of it, but when you do, the textures on either side of the line don't match up properly.

This can also cause issues for terraforming - I've experienced instances of digging into the terrain on one side of the line and not being able to fill it in again, or being able to stack into an endless spike right next to it, which has caused some really weird geometry to occur. On the whole not a huge bug, but a bit of an irritation and can make for some really ugly texture fails.

The screenshot above shows the place where my settlement is, with me standing right above one of these 'seams', I hope it's helpful and that it's something that's easy to root out and fix.

Again, love the game and looking forward to the MMO. Keep up the good work!

P.S. can there pretty please be a hotfix that makes it so that the ambient animal sounds coming from coops, barns and stables don't trigger unless there are animals inside of them? That'd be awesome!

Was this the wrong place to post this? This bug causes some serious issues in terraforming, I'd like to know if the devs are aware of it, or if anyone else playing the game has seen it.

I have seen this a lot already, it happens at the borders of the zones that the island is tiled into.

I REALLY hope the developers are aare of it, since it persists since ages, but after todays patch... I am not si sure anymore.

All we can do is maintain a healthy sense of optimism. Back in my first settlement, this bug was great at making massive spikes in the world, and holes we could actually fall through and die or get stuck. Turns out, there's just water under the island. On the other hand, at least I can write my own RP flavour text that claims my house is built on a natural leyline! That's the kind of whacky thing middle ages peasants probably never believed in because it was invented in the 1960's by hippies.
