[Bug] Cave worms loaded earlier then the player when starting game
Hello,
when I am returning into my game and left being in a cave, then the loading is not fully complete yet. The worms are partially loaded faster, then the player, or the player can not fully move which means, that I cannot kill them before they attack me. Which is pretty annoying. Don't want to die already in the beginning of the game. Could you start the game just when everything is fully loaded?
Thank you

Douglas Hoover Merged(Note that I have been playing solo, in online mode; I suspect this may effect this behavior.) The two (and only two!) times that I have quit the game while in a cave, when I came back to the game and re-loaded, all the cave worms in the vicinity immediately re-spawned at once. The first time, this caught me very much by surprise, and it killed me. While I can see how this behavior might make some sense in a multi-player game where the world persists when you are logged out (after logging out, time passes, the cave worms re-spawn based on time passing, and when you come back, they are all there again), when playing single-player it is extremely jarring to have the game state change so much (and so hazardously!) just because I needed to save the game right then and go deal with "real life" for a few minutes. If my supposition for the causes is correct, I would strongly recommend having time not pass in the game world while the game is not running, in single-player games.

cmopatrick MergedWell, at least in solo in open worlds, it is only occasionally fixed. Usually have one or two in my face the moment I reappear if I have left while in the cave proper. If I have the time, I usually run to the cave entrance to keep it from happening, but they still reappear as soon as I go back into it. Since caves are the best shelter early game (before I can build with stone), this is a problem I can confirm is still going as of this past week while I was building up to stone in open world while having real life interrupt a lot.
