Dream Catcher not collecting dreams?

Post by VtheVigilante »

Does there have to be a bed within a certain tile range of it?

No, I just think the 10 minutes statement@ wiki is not right. It's a bit more, but it does store up to 2 dreams.

I always thought it was 20 minutes per dream. But anyways, I believe the map the dream-catcher is in needs to stay loaded. So if it's indoors and you leave the house for a while, the house map may get unloaded from the server and the timer stops counting. Not positive on this, though.

I think you're right with this speculation.
Unloaded area = no dreams harvested mirrors my experience.

Funny, all of my dreamcatchers are only able to store exactly two dreams. You, sir, are a liar.

Funny thing, I've always had the feeling and experience that it won't collect dreams while I'm around the catcher itself...

But that does sound like a weird feature it'd have, so I doubt it's correct.

Thanks, apparently it does take more than 10 minutes... And it doesn't seem to catch any dreams when the map isn't viewed (loaded?) for an extended amount of time.

Fun fact:

If you stand and stare at your dream catcher, you can see a sparkle when the dream catcher well... catches a dream.

I'm sorry, it was very much in my memory that, when i buildt my recent claim, i got more than 2 dreams, maybe i was mistaken. Maybe next time you could say that? mistaken? maybe then i wont call you insulting
