Sons of the Forest is the sequel to the popular survival horror game The Forest. Set in a new, mysterious location, the game promises to bring back the same adrenaline-fueled gameplay and terrifying enemies that made the first game such a success. With enhanced graphics, improved gameplay mechanics, and a host of new features, Sons of the Forest has been delivering the same intense survival horror experience that fans of the first game loved. Released on the 23rd of February, the game has garnered much attention. But since it is in early access, bugs, and crashes are expected. We will go over one such issue where the players are unable to interact with Fish Trap in the game.
Since Sons of the Forest is a survival game at heart, mastering the art of hunting is a must. Hunting can reward players with necessary items for crafting and most importantly, food. Players can also opt to set up traps in water bodies to lure in and catch fish. However, there have been reports where players are not able to interact with the fish traps that they had set up. Keep reading to know if any fix exists for this issue.
Sons of the Forest Unable to interact with Fish Trap Issue: Is there any fix yet
Well, if you are unable to interact with your fish trap, here are some things you need to understand. First and foremost, make sure that the trap is working. In Sons of the Forest, you will not only need to craft the trap but also place it in the areas marked with a fish icon on your map. You can go about doing your thing and check on the trap later to see if it caught any fish. If it had, then you should be able to walk near the trap and press the corresponding button to interact and collect the fish. So make sure that there is a fish in the trap, otherwise, you will not be able to interact with it.
The next important thing is to make sure that you are not holding anything, in other words, two-handing anything while trying to interact with the trap. This is especially true if you have a spear or a two-handed weapon equipped. Make sure to unequip and keep both of your hands free to interact with the trap. Lastly, keep in mind that you cannot catch fish if it’s the winter season in the game. If that is the case, consider waiting out the winter before you go out to set up a trap.
And those are all the things that you need to be mindful of while trying to interact with the fish trap. If you did all of the above-mentioned steps only to fail to interact with the trap, then you may consider hitting up the support page for further assistance. After all, the game is still in early access and devs will be on the lookout for such bugs. With that, we have reached the end of this guide.
