:play_button: ISSUE EXPERIENCED

Right now, the bear hitbox—whether for polar, brown, or black bears—does not seem to fit the actual model, it appears to be “thicker”. When quickwalling a bear, it often appears to be walled in; however, the hitbox differs from that of wolves or other predator animals. This difference can cause the bear to bug out and walk outside the walled “zoo.” The issue occurs especially often in multiplayer games due to delay. This issue heavily impacts the Rage Forest community, esp when often people dont to Loom early.

Releated Issue
In self-built traps using walls and a large animal (e.g., bear), the animal’s oversized hitbox can block villagers from exiting the enclosure.

  • Attempt to quickwall the bear using buildings or palisades.

  • The bear can pass through the enclosure despite appearing to be trapped.
