no interaction with some objects (small pot of food, compass, vitamin...)
Need More Info, NormalPublic

Description

I uninstalled the game several times to reinstall it, and my problem persists: I can't interact with some objects, which prevents me from playing the game correctly.
For example, I starved to death when I I had a small jar of food in my hands, but I couldn't open it (and it wasn't canned food but a small jar of dough). I had the mouse icon on the bottom left of the screen with "open" noted, the icon was showing the left mouse button. I tried to hold it, nothing happened. The same goes for compasses, vitamins, and even putting wood in a fireplace to make a fire when I had all the necessary equipment. What bothers me is that it worked once or twice, but it hasn't worked for several days. I had the objects in hand for all these cases. I took some screenshots.

I'm in front of a fireplace and it is impossible for me to place the piece of wood, nothing happens despite the fact that I use the right button to interact.


Here, I have a little pajka in my hands, and I can't consume it, yet I hold the left button of my mouse

I tried to associate another button for the object action (for example the "u" key on my keyboard at random), nothing happens when I press it either.

How was your ping to the server? High ping can cause desync which results in not being able to interact with things.
Does this happen every time?

Hi,
currently it is 90, sometimes less. I take an official server with the least possible ping. I tried other servers anyway and it's the same.
It seems to me that it may have worked once or twice when I started the game (I started on May 2), but since then I have never been able to open a box of vitamins, a pajka, or anything else and every day I discover new objects with which I cannot have any interaction (and I try each time I connect to play).

I just wanted to add that in terms of cooking over a fire, I have since managed to do it, so the bug is mainly with objects to be opened without tools, or lighting a flashlight for example

Hello Lydoria.
Does this happen on every server you enter? It could be a desync or network problem.

Hello, I only tested 3 or 4 servers and it happened eatch time.

Haha, I just logged in and randomly tried again and it worked! This game make me crazy...
