Everything has 4 pieces - is this how it suppose to be?

By shear accident I found that Tree mushroom drops 4 pieces even though it seems it should be one. I never tried this before so I don't know if this supposed to be like this. Here is the video:



I wonder if everything has 4 pieces, does that makes performance impact? Maybe all objects are multiplied by 4 and our CPUs and GPUs are struggling?

Wow that is weird. Use in game report tool as I have no idea how much developers use this forum as a resource.

No it's not supposed to happen that way. Other people have reported a similar issue with multiple sealed doors appearing on top of each other so this doesn't surprise me.

Purely theorizing, it might also explain the crash issues people are experiencing after playing 10+ hours on the same game. If the engine is somehow multiplying the objects every time it reloads an area into memory, that would bog things down very quickly. Just guessing though...

Pretty sure this was always the case and is intended to be the case. It's more like you get parts of the one big shroom you hit, hence why they're so small in your inventory. The smaller table coral is also supposed to drop multiple pieces according to Trello's bugfixing page, but hasn't been doing that for quite a while.

I could be wrong, but that's a different circumstance. When you're going for SPORES/SEEDS, you get 4 from 1, but for everything else where you see the item, you're supposed to get just what you see you hack... 1 for 1.
