Enemies respawn immediately after dying.

Tech Support

Hi. So title is my issue. Searched for and only found people wanting enemies to respawn, but didnt find anyone with my problem.

As soon as an enemy is killed, it is posing again in his spawn spot. Wasnt happening on Chersonese, started doing this in the Marsh. Never seen this in other playthroughs. Also the world seems way more crowded with bandits than usual.

Any solutions or similar experiences?

Yeahh its weird and I know I sound like tech support but leaving the area, restarting and then going back into the area might fix it. I remember the beach near Cierzo had one mantis shrimp that would respawn in its spot as soon as you walked 10m away its weird.

I was gonna try that, but i am on a "primitive" run with only a satchel and didnt have spare cookies. So im moving forward. Right now im making a Tuonasaur and some bandits kill themselfs over and over. They already died over 4 times. The world is incredibly crowded.

Edit: oh and thx for the reply. Got to the city, got rations. Gonna go back and forth a few times see if that fixes it.

Ah when I say leave the area you can try going into a dungeon too instead of just leaving the map, anywhere that is a different loading screen

I tried dungeons before posting, didnt help. But changing areas a few times ended up fixing it. Thx!

Do you have the beta version enabled in Steam? I ran into a bug in that version that didn't let me make Jerky, and turning it off fixed that.

do you have any mods? lol, if not I sugest you to record and post it so we can take a look but seems like pretty fucked up lol

No mods. I never used recording software but theres not much to see. You kill someone, hes back at spawn. Distance to its spawn point dont matter, and its instant.

I guess this is a farming world now.. Ill repeteadly kill a group of bandits and see if they ever stop coming back.

I mean, I've had it where I kill some hyenas after leading them away from where they spawned and some new hyenas have spawned where I found the first ones. It only happens if I lead enemies far away from where they spawned before killing them though. It did give me a good scare once, lol. I've never had it where they spawn immediately when I kill them where I first found them, though. Playing completely mod-free here.

I’ve had a similar thing. A long and grueling battle with some bandits only for them to immediately respawn and obliterate me. If you kill the second group, they usually stay down. But that’s all I’ve got.

Thanks for the reply. Happened to me with the marsh dogs after a long journey without dying, using only primitive gear. Sucked.

Found a spot with a Tuonasasur and Bandits on the Sun road, and im making them kill each other over and over. Each group of mob died 4 times and they keep respawning.

Gonna play this overcrowded world and see how it goes.

For enemys to respawn some days must pass for them to appear

Yes, thats how it should be working, but isnt.

Ive had this happen a lot with bandits in the marsh near the connection to enmekar forest, and in enmekar the beast golem on the stairs near the northwest side would respawn if i dragged him a little ways before killing it allowing for very easy farming of materials!

I have made similar experiences though it seems to depend on the spawn. E.g. I had a Mantis Shrimp near the bandit camp in the north of Chersonese respawn twice on me after I turned my back and made some distance.

It seems to be related to how respawn works in general in this game. For a full respawn of an area, you have to be outside that area for 7 consecutive days. There are reserves of enemies though that fill spots that become empty until these reserves are depleted.
