Purge Bug - Spiders hidden in rock wall

Game mode: [Single-player)]
Type of issue: [Bug]
Server type: [n/a]
Region: [America]


Purge launched.

Purge attackers: Cluster of Spiders

Target: A base built in the waterway tunnel between the Boundary Spillway and the Shattered Basin.

I get to the base and do not see any spiders. I can hear them, but not see them. Cautiously moving into the base that was not completed, I get attacked by spitting venom. I spin to see that the spitting venom is coming from several location from within the rock wall. I tried to attack hoping I might be able to hit the spiders that were hidden in the wall to no avail.

I basically had to leave the base and let the 30 minute timer run down to end the purge. :frowning:


Please provide a step-by-step process of how the bug can be reproduced. The more details you provide us with the easier it will be for us to find and fix the bug:

  1. Build a base in the waterway tunnel between the Boundary Spillway and the Shattered Basin.
  2. Build up the purge meter so purge starts.
  3. If spiders are selected at the attacking Purge, “find” the spiders hidden in the rock walls.
  4. Get attacked by spitting venom, futilely attack the rock wall.

I had another purge hit.

It hit the same location with another CLUTTER OF SPIDERS.

Same results. Spiders hiding in the walls. No damage to base, but I could not kill the spiders either. :frowning:

Thanks for the report! Sorry to hear that they were still able to attack you through the wall. Could you get the coordinates where this was and/or screenshots of the base and map?
And was this on a public server? Thank you!!

It is on the PC and in Single-Player mode.

I am using the Offline Mod when I am playing.

Later today I will get the coordinates and screen shots.

Currently it is not much of a base, but enough to draw the attention of the Purge.

NOTE: I have had several successful purges while using the Offline Mod (2 Near the Stargazer Camp and 1 near the Den).

I have not had the chance to get over to the Spillway since the launch of the Halloween event. I am hoping to get there shortly to get the coordinates.
