Destroyed Village Idol and claim is still Active? Bug?

[Willberfollower]

I came across a inactive village and built a gate second gate after a open visitor gate. Moved my hearth inside a house there. The village was inactive so I had all permissions on the claim. I then destroyed the village idol. Immediately after I destroyed it I lost all permissions On the claim. Seeing as I had walked through the visitor gate to go in there originally and had not left the claim I had a visitor buff. Now I am unable to open the gate that I made and am trapped inside. My question however is how/why is the village claim even still there (I destroyed the village Idol) and how did it become active? I’ve looked around the claim and there’s no other village structures or statues. I’m leaning towards this is most likely a bug caused by destroying a village idol with a visitor buff on.

Also trespassing should be allowed with the visitor buff to give people a little incentive to not leave their visitor gates open all the time. If they do the consequences should be anyone can look around your base and at your stuff.

This is an intended feature. The claim should decay after 8 hours from its destruction. Go to bed and come back later and it'll be gone.

Best they can do, even if trespassing was enabled, would be to open gates and cross claims. it wouldn't allow theft or any other crimes.

Thanks for the info the wiki didn't say anything about that so I was confused.

But it would prevent a few rare and annoying incidences from happening. Like how I was trapped in that palisade for 8 hours even though I had the key for the gate.
