[0.61.1] No more Bandits.. Anywhere!

[telos]

I played for probably several days of game time and had several bandit patrols come by my settlement. I even had them try to bribe me (calling me out of my base to talk) several times. Of course I refused and wiped out their subsequent assaults.

Then... I went on a long trade mission with half of my squad, and encountered NO bandits at all across half of the entire map. All the while my base (with half of my squad) had no bandits attack the entire time.

Now I'm back at my base and it's been many days and I've had no bandits attack at all. Haven't even seen any approach.

I've experimented with the squad and global pop multipliers with no effect.

What happened to all the bandits?

[Koomatzu]

If anything there should be more bandits :/ Could you upload your save game for us to have a look at please?

[telos]

Here is the saved game zipped up (had to separate it into 3 zips). Hopefully this helps, it was more fun when bandits were attacking

The weird thing is I didn't even encounter any when I ran around half of the map.

I doubt the problem is that there is no bandits. The problem is likely the fact that the npc view range is stuck at a low setting. I thought all the bandits had disappeared too, but really it was the fact that the npc view range is so low and can't be changed to go higher. I believe many others have the same problem.

Hi - I don't think that is the issue, the reason being that as I mention above, I originally had bandits coming to my base regularly, even asking for bribes, but now none of the random bandits or bribe/raid bandits are coming to my base.

Since this issue came up, I've even had a notification "your base has been noticed by the Dust Bandits" and yet haven't seen any bandits show up at my base since.

I'm having the same problem too. Bandit raids stopped occurring, and bandit groups are very few and far between. I used to get Dust bandit raids all the time. Maybe they all suicides on my base? I can upload my saves when I get home, but that won't be for a while.

So, I ran around for a while again and encountered only ONE group of hungry bandits. They were out towards the empty southern desert. After I wiped out that group, there were no more to be seen anywhere around in a wide area, and still no visits to my outpost.

It is obvious though that there are a LOT of friendly patrols of Heaven's, Samurai, and Mercs walking around.. I wonder if they just wipe out the bandits faster than they can respawn?

in my games it end to come across a lot of bandits.
had my outpost attacked 3 times by the bandits asking for money before i went out on a jaunt.
came across many a hungry and dust bandit but a lot where injured, and some were laid out badly injured in a near perfect circle.

Not sure if its because i use my Mod or not, but hasn't had a shortage of bandits yet.

Could always just go check the Cannibal encampments

[Set]

I have at least 2 bandit attacks/session and if I go to the south I see big bandits groups, sometimes three groups in one.

P.S: I have no mod and the "popupation bar" is by default

[Danzigsam]

I get this too.

[Danzigsam]

Never mind; I hadn't played in a while and didn't know you can no longer see infinitely. I have plenty of bandits.

[TacticalMaster]

Yep. I got this problem too. No more assaults.
