Invisible townie (and wall) [SOLVED]

[supermalparit]

Yes, it's related.
But things doesn't dissapear magically, just go out of the screen. It's an animation issue, the living entity is on the cell (you can see it in the tooltip) but, for some reason, the animation continued moving it until he leaves the screen

Well I had it happen again. I emptied all the spots around him, so he's in the middle of a 3x3 square.. but he's not moving... Guess he'll starve again.

[caprontos]

try placing a wall under him to force him to move..

also can you tell him to equip? an see what happens?..

[Mannol]

Oh! he just appeared again..

I decided to just keep on building on him, and the moment someone wanted to place something on top of him, he appeared, dropped the wall he was going to place and moved off to eat.

edit: Lol didn't see the reply post. But I guess it worked

[caprontos]

So it seems to have something to do with placing a wall in a corner? and he will be stuck unless he is forced to move?
Or is it any wall?

[Riplash]

I had the same thing with a townie placing a fence. I also had a spider go running off the screen and disappear forever... connected? Who knows.

I placed a farm over the spot the townie was in and she wasn't indicated any more, but I don't know if she appeared or not... I forgot her name.
It was a straight section of fence. Maybe three spaces from the corner.

The same thing just happened to me. One of my townies was bringing the last wall segment to a building but after he got to the designated spot he just kept walking. I followed him but he eventually disappeared. When I went back to the wall segment he was supposed to place, this is what I saw:



Unfortunately, that's all of the information that I have...

So this just happened to me again, but with a twist. No glitched spiders were involved, but got 2 townies stuck on the same spot! I don't know how the initial townie was stuck, but its next to a wall corner so maybe he had set that down. Then I noticed no glass was being made so looked though my citizens and found a spot where I didn't see anybody and found the square. So I tried putting flowers over him, that didn't work. So I put a wall over him. Accidently placed down 2 walls, the other being placed first, but when the wall over the stuck townie was placed, it didnt free him but also trapped the townie with that task! Deleting the wall only freed the newly stuck townie. So I built a 2x2 section of walls around the area and that got him free, for whatever reason. Very strange...

The Evidence:

[caprontos]

I got a townie stuck invisible in a house where nothing was being done at all (for long time maybe a few months ago ingametime).. I wonder how long he has been there... Placing a half block wall under him fixed him.. He went right to eating after this with the sleepy sign on him.
