RESOLVED [YLD-28218] No cave on Yland?

Question

Is it possible for an Yland to generate without a cave? I've been searching this Tier 1 tropical rainforest with no success. It's strange because the Tier 1 Yland right next door which is a similar shape has a cave which I've marked on the map with a star.

Map generator is continually updated, percentage of mentioned problem was lowered every update, in case of 2.1  it was around 1:100 000 that it can happen (and only in shattered/atoll type of yland). In present version it should not appear at all.

Good to know, I wasn't quite sure if it was meant to be that way or not as it was the first Yland I'd found without a cave system (apart from the spawn Yland of course)

Most the Islands I hae been on do have caves. If you are ever in doubt you can always use /freecamera in the chat to look below the surface. It's kind of cheating but sometimes if you are certain there is no cave after exploring it all, you can do that as a last effort to find it.

Thanks for the tip! I gave it a go and couldn't see any cave systems. I think it's bull**** that mutated animals can still spawn on the surface at night though when there is no caves on that Yland. Doesn't make sense at all like where do they come from if there's no caves? lol

So the cave not appearing is probably a bug and we'll be looking into it ? If you could provide us with the map with the missing cave, then that would be awesome @handofthesly ?

How do I send you the .ylandsgame file as it is not supported here

I had the same issue posting .ylandsgame files here. I just sent it direct to Adam via discord.

Make sure if you do that to leave a reference of some sort to the forum post. Just so he knows what the file is about.

The surface mutated animals spawn at night from the mutated bear.  Kill him and they won't respawn.  I usually try to not kill him so I can farm ylandium.

By the way, I have killed the alpha bear on my home map 3 times and he keeps coming back. So maybe they respawn no matter what ?
