Steps
I started a new multiplayer save on a new save slot to try to figure out (at least for me and a joined player, I cannot seem to reproduce bug on my existing saves, traveled everywhere) what the trigger(s) are since there are so many of what seem to be opinions being tossed around here, or possibly multiple scenarios that trigger it.
I initially landed on a small island, but left for a large cliff island that night without building anything there, just collected resources and left with what we could carry (was thinking it would trigger when we got there and testing would end there, but it didn’t).
I have gone back and forth between some islands and my main base (which has large rock cliffs) and a small passive boar and large crabs, but no snakes. Experienced multiple storms already.
I’ve been taking it slow and so far, I have been alive 6 game days, explored 3 islands (2 of which have large rock cliffs with boars, hogs, and one with snakes).
- Some background: Perviously when I noticed the interaction issue, I was was on one of these large islands, but the snakes were not visible, like they were below ground. This is when I noticed the interaction loss, but can’t conclusively say that was the cause. I have not had the issue come up yet. We didn’t play long since I had expected the bug to appear by now.
Next milestones:
- Crafting a wooden raft with sail since I had used that to get to the islands on my save where it happened, but so far have only used the inflatable raft.
- Crafting like 40 lashings and dropping them in a pile since when I noticed it happen, that was what we were directly engaged in doing and then suddenly couldn’t pick up fibrous leaves or hit anymore young palms.
- Surviging to 15 days since this is when it occured last time.
Interesting notes: In my most recent escapade at a large cliff island, I killed 3 swine (1 small-passive boar, and 2 large aggresive hogs) and harvested them and put the items inside two crates which I took with me back to my base on the other cliff island. When I returned home, I only had 1 crate, so I thought, ok, this is it. However, so far, I can still interact with everything just fine. I just lost everything that was in the one crate that had the meat.

Not yet applicable.
Suggestions for triggering the bug are welcome, but please be specific in your suggestion, so I can do my best to replicate.
