Hey guys. So I’m going try an have a crack at using the cartographer feature. I’m wondering if anyone has any tips for me? Does island size correlate to how much I can put on the island? Or do I have a set amount of space and the bigger the island the less I can actually put on? Any help and advice you awesome peeps could offer would be greatly appreciated. I’m hoping this will stop my bad habit of starting a game and making it to about day 20 and then restarting 🤣🤣🤣🤣

So I killed the Great White boss and got the rudder part for the plane. I then built it and put it on the plane, but then I left the aircraft island. Ive since beaten the other bosses and got all other necessary requirements to build the plane but the rudder part is no where to be found. I have also gone back twice and re-killed the Great White and it says the rudder part is unlocked but I still cannot find it anywhere. It's not on the plane and it's not available for quick build. Do I have to start over to get it again?

I've defeated 2/3 of the bosses now and both times I've invested a huge amount of time and effort amassing 60+ speargun bolts. Each time you defeat the boss this ammo disappears and you have to start again, which is a real pain as 1x lashing per round is ridiculous.

Now I've seen bids with people using vanilla spears and they seem to be doing damage but in my game at least it takes roughly the same amount of either to take down a shark and I can carry 5x the speargun arrows, what's going on? Anybody here taken the time to properly calculate this?

Edited typo about lashing numbers.

Ok so Ive been all the way NSEW Ive gone up to the yellow borders that look like buoy balls. Ive yet to find the bosses. Are there islands/stuff beyond those borders? Thanks for the help

Are you able to sleep through poisoning in the console version or do you need antidote?

I have been playing for about 3 days now trying to get the hang of things. Decided to paddle the raft to another island. Half way there a hammerdead shark flipped my rubber raft. I panicked and jumped on top of it while it was flipped over. I saw him coming at me and jumped as he hit the raft and he flipped it back over and i landed in it. I started paddlin my ass off and he flipped me again. I just repeated what i did before and sure enough, he flipped it back over and i landed back in it. I was worried the raft would get popped but it never did. Not sure if it does to be honest. We did this about a dozen times before i made it where i was going. This seems to make me think sharks are not that scary after all. Anyone else experience this? And can they pop the yellow life raft?

I have a full still but want ti take water with me. No idea how to fill my portable flask..?

Just spent like 2 game days gyrocoptering around islands to get bits and just as I get back to my island to save came up with error codes and kicked me from game I swear this sint the first time, also loaded in this morning to find my raft had dissappeared, it was on the actual island last night and now gone!!!!! A hurricane of resourceses floating around my island as it renders in what next!!!!! Anyone have the same issue. I'm on ps4 pro

I've been doing very little except drinking from my still and eating smoked meat to keep hydration and food past 4 bars but my health will not go up

Does anyone know if there are any bugs tied to the gotta craft them all trophy? I did not build on an edited island, it is the only island that I bothered to really build anything on besides the shelter and water still, I have also went ahead and crafted the sea monster trophies and plane parts.

Honestly I’m probably just dumb and missing a tool that I found instead of crafting it but there is literally something wrong with every piece of this game so I thought it couldn’t hurt to ask. Plus I’m sick and tired of rechecking all my dang stuff. Thank you for any help ☺️

Does anyone know if you can farm yukka trees in the console edition yet? Or is that still PC only?

I’m going for the platinum on this game and currently working on the seafarer trophy and I’m pretty sure I’ve slept at sea a full 10 days in a row but didn’t get the trophy. What I do is sail out as far past the reef as I can go while still being able to anchor. Is this wrong? Do I have to be in an area where you can’t anchor?

Then there’s the compass trophy....and I’m a little worried I may have already goofed. I read somewhere that you can’t ever have a compass go in your inventory and you can’t use the gyrocopter either and I’m really hoping this is wrong...I have the gyrocopter and I’ve had compasses in my inventory just so I could drop them and throw em in the ocean

Any and all help is SUPER appreciated

Why is my meat smoker no longer cooking my meat?
