There are reports of Zois stuck/trapped at buildings/business lots, but this also happens anywhere in the worlds -.-
This is in Bliss Bay

I really don’t want Zois to die because they are stuck somewhere, please fix this soon
I can emergency rescue these two, but I’m afraid there are many more and I can’t find them all

[LennyOgg]

Maybe a auto-rescue when they can’t move to fill their needs

[HeinziDerHeld]

An auto-rescue for stuck NPC Zois would be amazing. I’m constantly worried about them and it drives me crazy.

This is very similar to the issue I currently have with my Inzoi stuck in a building shell.

Hope our posts get addressed at some point soon.

An example from yesterday and a group of Zois “stuck” in a door.

[ricobearlikesbacon]

Mine have been stuck for a while too. Don’t want them to die.

[ricobearlikesbacon]

I think even a more updated and powerful Rescue Tool would be good as a temporary solution. Just to be able to rescue those on sight.

Even resetting them back home would be great.

Hello all (@here),
First of all, we are sorry for the inconvenience.

So that we can investigate the issue better, could you please share your save files?

Here is mine.

However if you could attend to OP’s Save file first as this is their post.

Here is my original post for this issue, a few days ago:

Inzoi trapped near 2234 Sunset Harbor Wei - Bug Reports - inZOI Forums

[LennyOgg]

Thank you!
I have already rescued the Zois I’ve found so my save file won’t be of any use.

[Taibak]

I also rescued my stuck Zois

[Taibak]

But earlier, three customers of my little café wanted to enter the café at the same time, and the Zoi, who had bought fruit juice, wanted to leave the café. All of the Zois stood on the spot and shuffled back and forth. This went on for a while, but when I took the screenshot, I forgot to press pause before but this time, the group dissolved on its own.

[LennyOgg]

I’ve already noticed this behaviour on my residential lots and I think this might be related.
Thread is → here

I wish the Devs would change it back to before it was, when Zois just peacefully walked around each other without confrontation or getting stuck.
And an option to remove that annoying ‘shocked range’.

[Taibak]

Thanks, Lenny. I didn’t know about this thread.

[LennyOgg]

Just made a bug report because the ocean is gone and that same Zoi is stuck again, even though I’ve emergency rescued him last time.
This is a month now and still isn’t fixed.
Zois are dying out there in the cold
What can be more important than that?

[ricobearlikesbacon]

Still same issue as well . Haven’t been able to play for weeks.

There are several reports of Zois being trapped for months now (here, here and here for example), their needs deplete and they eventually die (if we don’t find and rescue them).

This is a severe bug many players have encountered and it never got acknowledged or added to the known issues list.

I just checked the usual spot and again, there is a Zoi trapped there.

Please hotfix this as soon as possible.
With help of the AI it could be fixed relatively quick imo:

• find every Zoi that didn’t move for one minute (for example)
• or: find every Zoi that is unable to move towards an object to fill their low needs
• then auto emergency rescue them
• also put the location where the zoi got stuck into a datasheet and fix the routing issues there

Have you found stuck/trapped Zois in your game too?

• yes
• no

Hi @LennyOgg

Since your post covers the same bug-report about Zois trapped/stuck also in other places of the world , I’ve merged it into the existing thread so all related information stays together. Thank you!

[LennyOgg]

@Michael

can you please unmerge this post again?

This post you merged it with is flagged with ‘needs info’ and it never gets forwarded because I made the mistake to address two issues and the second issues is the one that needs info.

Therefore I’ve made a new post for the trapped zoi issue.

The trapped Zoi issue does not need info.

It will never move forward if it stays here.
