Question about Troll Caves and Events:

Looking for a way to go AFK while hosting a game and came up with the idea of being inside a cleared Troll cave.

Two questions:

1) Once the troll in a cave is dead, it can't respawn correct?

2) Can an event trigger around a player inside a troll cave.

Thanks

"Events have a 20% chance of starting every 46 minutes if there is a player within 40 meters of at least 3 base structures (except for the "You are being hunted..." event which doesn't require player base). The event is randomly selected from available events."

Because this is wrong, this has been wrong for a long while.

Cleared troll caves are just that, cleared, go take a nap in one, go afk, pack your pipe and have a bong and a blintz.. it's all good in there.

This the same wiki that has not been updated to note that Fuling invasions happen AFTER killing Yagluth?

Please don't quote a non-updated wiki as fact.

I don't understand where your misinformation is coming from. Every source I can find states that fulings start attacking after defeating Moder, as per patch 0.154.1 on June 9th. I just replayed this game in November, from beginning to end, and this absolutely was the case. I don't see anything in any patch notes between June and now even stating how to enable the fuling event.

Also, the wiki includes every patch note through 0.206.5 from December 14th, so again, I really have no idea where you're coming from here. The Events page was last updated on October 23rd.

Unless you can cite your sources, I'm going to have to start a new seed and play through Moder to find out for myself.

The quote was to correct your mistake.

But i dont know why you ask that , you cant build anything there, only a fire

Because i wanted to know if the cave was near structures if that counted understand? for example if I build my base around a Troll cave at its center... would me being in the troll cave allow me to stay in game afk and NOT trigger an event (centered around my character)

understand?

This answer isn't completely correct and definitely should not be mark as the topic answer.

I'm pretty sure the trolls don't respawn in there. Events require specific criteria, like being near a workbench. The events are only supposed to spawn near your base.

cleared dungeons and swamp crypts also work, since they do not respawn enemies unless there's still a unbroken bone or dead body pile in it
