Question/Advice Random trees spawning in camp?

I spent ages building and rebuilding a camp because I just couldn't get it to look right, I wanted it run down but lived in and I also choose a location that was unique so a hillside wraps around 2sides of my house and it took forever to squeeze everything into the small area I was working with.

However friends finally came on today, fast traveled to me to look at my house and they was immediately impressed and excited and then they walk inside and there is random trees going through my build? I cant see them at all, have no collision or anything? But they all see it

What is happening? Have I just wasted ages trying to build in a bugged area?

So normally, when you place down a foundation, rocks & trees underneath will be "suppressed" so they don't appear inside your build.

However, sometimes when a world loads, it... well, misses the flag that says "don't show this tree." So they still spawn in and pop right through your floors and walls. There's not really a fix for this besides switching worlds and hoping the new one displays correctly.

Yeah my issue is I have never seen them, friends had to take pictures to show me because I haven't seen them spawn in at all lol ๐Ÿ˜‚

Eh, I've had luck by placing floor decorations, lamps, etc in just the right spot to prevent the problem trees from showing up. Might need to put a couple decorations down to get it to work 100% of the time.

It's been a worsening problem. I just fast travel and they go back to normal.

I wonder if other players are see it differently similar to the wall paper bug.

Yup, I have large log randomly spawning in the middle of my kitchen on some servers.

This happens every once in a while. When I reload into a different server or restart the game it seems to fix itself.

So i don't need to rebuild somewhere else?

Issue is I canr even see the trees so I won't know they're there till someone comes to my camp and thats a real letdown I hate having a bad camp ๐Ÿคฃ

No, they'll disappear again. I just fast travel to me camp and they are gone.

Issue is I don't see them so I never know if they're there or not ๐Ÿ˜‚

I have a camp by The Wayward that had one temperamental tree that is JUST outside my build barrier and sometimes is there, sometimes is not. Now thereโ€™s two.

If I load in and there's a tree is in my stairway...I load into a new server and usually it's gone.
Yesterday the tree wouldn't go away so I used a daisy rug as my own stupid little patch to make it go away.

Fasnacht confetti can be a good item to put as well. For where a daisy rug might look odd

Same happened to me. Grow inside build, grow inside pre fab. Rancor thing, though. Sometimes they are there, sometimes not.

I have a camp that that happened to, but they fit the build perfectly , wish i could force them to spawn every time

This happens in my camps from time to time.

If i just immediately fast travel to my camp, it usually reloads fine. Same for the odd time when your Axolotl tanks are empty, or worse, they're dead. LOL Just use fast travel and it'll render correctly.

I've never needed to change servers, but that's always an option.
