    *FIRST TIME CONSOLE BUG REPORTER SO BEAR WITH ME*

     

    Summary: After the update, we played with zombies off for 3 game days before enabling them at Day 138. By default day 140 should have been a Blood Moon but nothing happened. No red warning either. Thought maybe it would happen 7days after day 138, but still nothing. Zombies are spawning normally aside from the lack of blood moon. It is clear many others are having this issue on Xbox and PS5 based on Reddit posts.

     

     

    Game Version: (V1.0 b336)

     

    OS/Version: Xbox X

     

    CPU Model: N/A

     

    System Memory: N/A

     

    GPU Model and VRAM: N/A

     

    Screen Resolution: Default

     

    Video Settings: Default

     

     

    Game mode: MP Host? (Hosting a mp game on Xbox)

     

     

    Map: Navezgane

     

     

    Did you wipe old saves? No (it's our only save)

     

     

     

    Did you start a new game? *Did not start a new save but did relaunch the world to see if the settings were off

     

     

     

    Did you validate your files? N/A (not applicable to console?)

     

     

     

    Are you using any mods? No

    Did you try to reproduce without mods? N/A 

     

     

     

    EAC on or off? Off? (Whatever the default is for console)

     

     

     

    Bug Description: No Blood Moons since 8/15 console Hotfix 

     

     

     

    Detailed steps to reproduce the bug:

     

    1) Load a save previously affected but the zombies on/off bug (with zombies still off) 

     

    2) Play for 3 game days

     

    3) Exit and enable zombies (Leave Blood Moon settings as default)

     

    4) Launch the world and experience the lack of Blood Moons?

     

     

    Actual result: As explained in description (No indicator/warning on the day, No red sky, no horde.)

     

     

    Expected result: If the game was working correctly I'd expect a Blood Moon, but the actual result is as described.

    Hi @marksman75 I believe we may have a related open ticket on this one, but in the meantime can you see if these steps work for you as a workaround?

    1. Before continuing the game, head over to the Basics tab
    2. Set Blood Moon Frequency to Disabled
    3. Start game
    4. Exit game
    5. Go back to the Basics tab and change your Blood Moon frequency back to what it was before (ex: 7 days by default)

    I'm not really sure how to check outside of logs (which you won't have access to on xbox) when the next blood moon will occur, but see if this will trigger a blood moon within the next however many days you set the frequency to. (So if you set it back to every 7 days at say, day 145, see if you get a blood moon on day 152 or earlier), or if you don't want to wait that long and see if it works, try setting it to 1 day

    The Blood Moon worked fine however it seems zombies are spawning much less frequently during the day. We had 1 pack of wolves but other than that nothing. With 20 dew collectors and 5 forges going we usually get at least 2 screamers. It's  been 8 game hours since the Blood Moon.
