I have what feels like hundreds of these fox households. Never ending scrolling past foxes tails. It's ridiculous!

I've got this too on Xbox series S. Some discussion on the feed about the Game creating tons empty households/Save game bloat/Insane lag told me they were foxes. I've been clearing out NPC households as there are so many more after cottage living (as discussed on the appropriate thread). I had several hundred NPCs and absolutely loads of these and deleted them too. No wonder my foxes have vanished from my game!

There are so many things to love about cottage living but the amount of bugs caused by that and the associated update, it's off the scale!

I'm considering uninstalling Cottage Living until this is fixed.

Based on all I've read, I'm terrified to buy it. It's not even a refusal to buy; it's total paranoia. I am, therefore (of course), dying for them to totally fix this pack so I can see what all the *positive* fuss is about, lol.

I am having this issue. I stopped counting at the 100 mark. I'm deleting all but like four. @crinrict Should I start a new bug report for this issue? 

 

edit:I I see there's a thread not about foxes specifically but I'll post my me too in that thread over there.
