Dinkum Known Issues, Workarounds and Fixes

Official October-update fixes for multiplayer freezes, invisible Mu riders and character appearance, plus visitor-save changes and event availability checks.

PC
Officially acknowledged

Spectral Bats do not appear outside the event window

Platforms: PCUpdated Evidence checked

The Spooky Event runs October 1–November 7 according to the player’s system clock. Spectral Bats are also night-only during that event; their absence outside those conditions is not evidence of an active spawning bug. [1]

Documented workaround

Unexpected multiplayer disconnection

Platforms: PCUpdated Evidence checked

The update adds an option allowing visiting players to save progress after an unexpected disconnection. It is an additional save option, not a claim that disconnects have been eliminated. [1]

Resolved

Host appears bald when a visitor joins

Platforms: PCUpdated Evidence checked

The documented bald-host appearance bug happens when a visitor joins while the host holds clothing. The update records a visual fix for that combination. [1]

Resolved

Saddled Mu rider becomes invisible at distance

Platforms: PCUpdated Evidence checked

The update fixes players turning invisible while riding a saddled Mu far from other multiplayer participants. This is a player-visibility fix for that distance/riding situation, not evidence that every missing animal has the same cause. [1]

Resolved

Visiting player appears frozen after renaming a farm animal

Platforms: PCUpdated Evidence checked

The October update fixes a visiting player becoming unable to continue normally after renaming a farm animal. Match the visitor/rename trigger to a current freeze report; this is not a fix for every loading or input pause. [1]

Resolved

Freeze-like state when pushed into a Tele-Tower or Tele-Pad

Platforms: PCUpdated Evidence checked

The patch records a separate freeze-like state triggered by being pushed into a Tele-Tower or Tele-Pad while using a menu. It identifies both the transport interaction and the open-menu condition. [1]
