MyCampfireDontLeaveMe

Overview

This mod addresses a critical bug in Caldera where the campfire may fails to load on the client side, preventing progression to The Kiln and trapping players in an infinite loading screen if they try to rejoin. It provides a simple workaround by allowing players to manually advance to The Kiln.

Problem

The base game occasionally fails to spawn the campfire in the Caldera. When this occurs:

• Players cannot progress naturally to The Kiln
• Rejoining the game does not resolve the issue
• Players also become stuck in an infinite loading screen if they try to rejoin
• Players have no alternative but to abandon the session

Solution

MyCampfireDontLeaveMe forces the final segment The Kiln to load when activated, enabling affected players to continue their progression without interruption.

Usage

• Press and hold F11 (default) for 3 seconds near the missing campfire to force load The Kiln.
• The hotkey can be customized in the configuration file or by ModConfig

⚠️ Important Notes

• Client-Side Fix : This mod only resolves the issue for your own client. Other affected players must install this mod independently to benefit from the fix. This is not a server-side solution.

If it's not love to let you leave again, I don't know what is. Now if my love for you won't make you stay, I don't know what will.
