Directional Arrow

The arrow that points in which direction your facing on the map seems backwards.

Yes, I ran around the perimeter of my island and it was in reverse the whole way.

A bit disconcerting and confusing if at night, but once understood, it’s not so bad. Would prefer to have a round dot so that you know you have to get a good line of sight rather than rely on a backward arrow shape.

Ah yes, this is a bug related to some character changes we did just before release.
A fix is planned for Monday :slight_smile:

I did not report this before because it might have been related to the map arrow problem. But in 5.03 – 5.04 the players head faces the wrong way when talking to villagers.

Ohh, this is an interesting one, thanks for the report!
It’s not related to the map arrows as far as I can see.

I can only get it to happen when I face away before talking to them, I guess it’s the same for you?
Basically, the head faces the direction it was facing before starting to talk.

Unless you are facing directly at the villager, the body turns, but the head remains facing in the same direction. This never happened in version 4, but started with version 5. It in no way detracts from playability.

That’s it exactly. Weird.

Just released Alpha 5, the head turning is fixed :slight_smile:
