Elsbytte and Muffins Bug?

Diebesgut · March 14

Has anyone bought Elsbytte and Muffins? When you place them, Muffins hops along behind Elsbytte in a very strange, stuttering way when she walks normally, and when she walks faster, he slides behind her in a strange way. 🤔

Tested in Hunter's Glade and Still Water.

...is anyone else experiencing this problem?

I've not seen that specific example, but I regularly see odd pet behaviour where a player's pet's is either sliding or teleporting to keep up. My guess would be that there's a mismatch in the pet walking/running speed as a result of the size difference.

I know it happens with the 3 Alliance Breton Terriers I have circling each other in the Antiquarian House. They start off fine but after a few seconds they start unnaturally teleporting forward during their pathing.

There are three other mammoths running around in another player's house, all moving completely normally. Only the mammoth that follows Elsbytte is broken.

Now she's annoyed that she bought them...

I had her pathing in my Coldharbour Estates so people could see her before buying.
I have the same issue with muffins having a weird walk walk walk, pause, walk walk walk pause, pathing movement.
It's not smooth at all and is really bothersome.

Plus Elsbytte is not capable of moving 'around' Muffin, so a lot of times during the path, she just walks right through her.

To be honest, I'm surprised it works as well as it does, but it's still janky enough that I probably won't every use it in a build.
