Issue
I have been playing SDV with my 3 kids on switch since 1.6 dropped. Everything has been going well except I noticed one of my kids can’t access the adventurers guild. That wasnt too much of an issue since I would just purchase a new sword for him every other day when he died in the mines. Now that we’ve unlocked the back of Willy’s shop, I come to find out that he can’t access the boat room either! This is a huge issue for him since he loves (dieing in) the mines!

Mine and 2 of my kids it’s fine.
One kid can’t.

Version
1.6.9.40 (same on all devices)

OS & Device
  • I’m on switch OLED (hosting local coop)
  • 3 kids are all on switch lite
  • Wife made character on original switch
In-Game Language
We are all playing on English

Single or Multiplayer
Multiplayer, Local Co-op

Controller Setup
I am docked and using Switch Pro Controller
Kids are all using Switch Lite handheld

Other Info
The only thing I can think that maybe caused this is that originally my wife created his character on her switch. We then found out switch can only have 4 players (not 8) and he has just been using her character whenever he signs on. That being said, I tested my wife’s switch and it has the same issue with his character being unable to get into Willy’s back room.

Is this a known bug?
Is there a workaround?

Help!

Resolution
After digging around a bit on his account it looks like he never collected the mail that gives him access to the back room! He's 6 and I guess reading the mail is too boring for him. Can someone please mark this as resolved and I'll keep this here in case someone else has the issue in the future? 😁
