[BUG] floating dwellers wasted rooms and caps

Post » Sat Feb 13, 2016 3:32 pm

I have a problem as many others do with floating dwellers. I have spent quite a few caps attempting to remove and rebuild the suspect rooms. I am a supporter of this game but this bug is a royal pain.

Has anyone had any luck with this one?

I experienced the same issue today and it freaked me out!


I upgraded an Athletics room and after the light went back on the 2 Dwellers, which where assigned there before, were gone. I found them in my other Athletics room so I tried to reassign them, but they were floating as you put it and didn't show up in the room. So I assigned them somewhere else which worked. But then I tried to destroy the Athletics room but it says I cant destroy it because there are Dwellers assigned to... In my list of Dwellers no one shows assigned to this room.


If someone could help, I would really appreciate it.


But I love this game :)

Im having same issue with atheltics room. I updated to 1.0.3 version. Then 1 atheltics room is broken. Floating guys between floors to other atheltics room. Cant destroy room. Tried rebooting. Tried reassigning different guys to room. Nothing fixing it. Anyone have solution? Its only affecting this 1 room. However, recently caught fire couldnt put it out. It spread to other rooms. Havent had to deal with roaches there yet.

I have the same problem. Dwellers are bouncing up and down between three rooms.

I am having the same issue. Built an additional athletics room and upgraded it completely only to have dwellers float up to the original athletics room to do nothing. Destroyed it (wasting like 10000 caps mind you as it was a double room) and rebuilt it. I upgraded it once and it worked fine. Once I upgraded it again to the highest level I had the same issue. Not doing anything else with it until this gets fixed. Otherwise I love this game.


Update: as of this afternoon I am now having issue with moving pregnant women around. It's not all of them but two I can't move from the barracks.

Have been having the same floating dweller problem, it's been happening in older rooms though that can't be destroyed, and none of which are my athletics room but my restaurants.

Floating dwellers still, even after update. Big fan of the series. Hoping this will be attended to in a timely manner.

Tried removing Athletics Center and placing a new one in a different location, but that didn't work. Tried the update, no good. Actually, I didn't have an issue until the update. Apparently, having more than one Athletics Center is a problem. It still shows that they are in the center, although they are wandering all over the screen now. I'm not upset, because I wouldn't be able to program my way out of a wet paper bag, but if someone were looking for something to fix, that would be a top one.

Also, while I'm ranting, I'd like the cap lifted to include more dwellers and better gear.

Same issue aa the others. To add some more info... Only had one other bug (unable to move pregnant women - workaround i found was stacking the room with other dwellers till the went to work somewhere then was able to move them). Ran into floating dweller bug after 44 dwellers were in shelter. Mine float between level 2 and level 4 diners. Both are 3 combined rooms and are both upgraded to lvl 2 rooms... Dont have enuf caps to play with diff levels between rooms. Roaches can float between rooms as noted in other comments so this is a big pain in the a$$. Like others tho... Love this game and cant wait for the new Fallout 4!!

I'm having trouble with a floating corpse. My workers are complaining of working next to a corpse and morale is down. My list shows everyone is alive, so I cannot figure out where this floating corpse is. Please fix

I have had this bug since the 1.0.3 update. I had no floating dwellers, then I woke up (Friday morning? Saturday morning? whenever the game updated) and had floating dwellers. It definitely seems to be specific to cafeterias (not gardens) and agility training rooms. I've tried deleting rooms but it didn't help. I hope Bethesda addresses this issue in the next patch.

I am also seeing the problem of floating dwellers.


In my case, I have 3-wide, Level 2 diners (food rooms) one right above the other. Dwellers move between them in a diagonal up or down path like a hidden escalator runs between the levels of my restaurant. Seems worst at harvest times when people are running around, but also happens when dwellers are just casually walking about the diner. When checking rooms, the correct people are still assigned to the right rooms, but they are not selectable when floating and do not assist in disasters.


Photos are hard to catch, I have had as many as 4-5 people floating between the floors, Tried to link to them on my web page, but I'm not allowed to post links. I will provide link if PM'd.



Sometimes if I just have a character selected and they start to float and I am locked into the detail view of that person (their special window on the left) until I quit the game and close app.


iPhone 6 iOS v8.3, app version in pip-boy settings = 1.0.3 Dwellers=39 shelter 6 levels deep

Whilst that's good that you're investigating this bug, why not investigate the bug that's actually stopping people playing the game and thus loosing you money! We can't buy lunch boxes if we can't play the game!
