Enemies really hate my buildings
With the new AI update, enemies appear to prioritize my buildings and boats over me. I realize it said they would target my buildings if they couldn't get to me, but I'm standing out in the open and they almost seem to stare at me and then turn 90 degrees to go whack a fence.

They keep ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ up my boats , I clear the perimeter area , pop into to a crypt , walk out , my boat is gone, there's only cargo and parts floating on the water.
I used to have that wherever I left a boat, not only in the swamp. After losing my umpteenth set of nails, I adopted a new policy: use the boat, break it down on arrival, rebuild it when it's needed. It does mean carrying the boat around in the meantime but, hey, that's a lot less troublesome than it would be in real life and at least I have a boat when I need it! It's also why I tend to use a karve until I have a handy-dandy baby base at the target location ...
Not much help, I grant you, if you're already stuck in the swamp "running out of arrows and tools", etc. ...

Seems like a cool update but perhaps needs some tweaking. Enemies should still priorities you, not buildings or boats
One more idea.
They should allow some enemies to climb walls and moats (not all of them will make it through, they can be slow while doing this, giving you opportunity to retaliate and it should cost them stamina). Then raids will be interesting. Moats around bases are OP.

Too much valuable stuff on the boat , I like the idea of going in and out pillaging and running outThey keep ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ up my boats , I clear the perimeter area , pop into to a crypt , walk out , my boat is gone, there's only cargo and parts floating on the water.

I wonder if they get confused targeting floor pieces..... Might go scatter some random 1x1 pieces outside to test it, lol.

Yup really bad update. I really don't like the base raids.

...time to slap down some scratching posts, eh, kiddies; another outlying ring of defences? lol...here, silly AI, go chew on this rubbish over here, although boat attacking is a definite no-no. Before this update, I always seemed to have a pair swim out around my pretty long jetties and bring down my longboat[sad clown face], losing the nails in the fairly shallow water at my docks, where they'll sit consuming memory as they'll probably never despawn-yet cannot be looted?
I already had begun to repair the small dwellings just on the outskirts of some bases for the Troll events, they did gravitate towards it because of my ring of Beech trees on the lip of my moats. Obscuring LOS is a part of my base defence/combat strategy...
I'm defending what I've managed to create in this viking layer of the afterWorld...as this seems to be in the progression; after you craft all the highest tier weapons/armor, it's defend your base time, while you farmSim your life planting veggys, managing livestock, and fishing...

You can't really protect it even if you wanted, because undead walk under water with ease. You can't really wall it off.
Idk if it makes sense for the leeches to attack seemingly random pile of wood. That's some serious motivation against boats. Previous life grievances perhaps?

I'm stranded at the swamp running out of arrows and tools , there are no deer hides or leather scraps :D to build a raft.

I find the new behavior less predictable and more fun.
Sometimes they go after me, sometimes - after my stuff, in the end it looks natural and sometimes amusing... Like they hate me AND my stuff now, not just chasing me all the time.

More fun?, it doesn't make any sense, they just hop from one to the other, sometimes they bug out. Leeches sometimes just don't do anything and are completely static.

I've spaced out the stone piles you can build around my base. They attract the mobs, don't last long, but enable me to get my shots in.

Had something similar happen in the swamps earlier today. A draugr aggroed, ran up to me, bumped into me, and then kept running past me to attack the boat about 40 yards behind me.

Same.. I had furlings attack move near me then they went to attack my walls (???) that has a crafting bench behind it rather than me.. I was even beside them with the shield ready hoping to parry them..
Rather odd behavior really. I haven't got the experience of what would happen if there's a base raid but damn, really looks like something I don't wanna experience atm lol
