Slimes going out the nets and going stray is also ruled out. Tarrs also tend to be very quick and capable jumpers, which can easily break my air nets. My Corrals are all music-boxed, High-walled, Air-Netted, and Plort-Collector.ed? yeah so 'Tarr' is ruled out, because a Tarr would eat all nearby slimes and that means the whole corral. Other small slimes, 10 in each corrals are not affected.Ħ. Note that during this time, I sprint around the ranch several times, teleporting to Mochi's Manor and Ogden's Retreat because that was my main focus of what to do.ĥ. First time counting was 10, after not feeding them for a few days both become 9, then a few more days and both become 7. The ones that disappear are phospor and rock slimes, not largos. I did not see them disappear in front of me, but I know because I count my slimes from time to time.Ĥ. The ones that disappear have toys in their corrals, and these toys are the toys that specific slime type likesģ.

I mean, 3days+ of not being fed anything at all.Ģ. If your experience is exactly the same, or if by doing what I mention below, your slimes disappear (requires a few amount of tests by multiple people) = then it's pretty much confirmed. This is so that we can establish a pattern. Okay one important thing to note, as the original poster I gotta tell you a few facts. Now after reading this post I'll excersize caution when I give them their toys.Īnd I encourage you to keep the community well informed about this possible reason why their slimes could be vanishing. To be honest I never read the posts titled disappearing slimes before playing again. Yet to my relief none of my slimes have vanished from saving & quitting as I feared. From all the posts on the forum I thought my slimes would be mysteriously gone next time I played my save. So if you have experienced this bug, can you recall if you had a slime toy with the slimes that vanished? Not that free-range is bad, but it should be done to allow your slimes more roaming freedom rather than an answer-all to avoid keeping track of them.Originally posted by purplecharmanderz:Bringing up a possible link that VinTJ mentioned in a discussion about another bug so it is a bit more visible.īased on my understanding of their claims there may be a conncection between slime toys and the 'vanishing' slimes.įrom a discussion on the wiki's discord it might be collisions with the toy when the game unloads the area that causes the slimes to 'vanish' (although it is more of a teleport out onto the range somewhere). The only thing free-range does is fool you into thinking you no longer need to keep track of them, which is kinda a false sense of relief. With slimes in a corral atleast you can do a quick check by vaccing them all up and then you know how many you have.

Turns out I had 25 when I originally thought I only had 20 - the extra 5 most likely came when I thought I had lost one or two and replaced them with more. Eventually I did a head count by catching all of them. You will always lose some Quantum slimes no matter what you do so I find that putting them in a corral at least helps me keep better track of them, as it does for all of my other slimes.Īt one time I had a bunch of free-range Tabby slimes in the Overgrowth expansion but they ended up eating most of my chickens, uprooting a lot of my veggies and displacing them, and I could never tell how many I had of them. None of my slimes are free-range and I have 10 of each of the 15 catch-able types in the game, excepting the Puddle slime which I have 5 of and which sort of could be considered free-range because they are living in the pool in the Docks expansion, but that was only because I ran out of lots for everything else.
