To:You
Type of phone: i use my tablet, it's a samsung galaxy tab a, model number is SM-T307U im not sure if the model number is helpful or not so i figured id add it just in case
Details of your issue: ive been using the iridum ring and it works great but i went to the forge and combined it with the lucky ring and ever since the magnetic buff doesn't work at all, and it almost feels like I've got a smaller magnetic radius than it usually is with no rings. I have to be within one tile of something or it won't collect the item, so im constantly running around to collect stuff which really slows down the gameplay. its like this now whether im wearing the ring or not, i tried switching to other rings with the magnetic buff, or rings with no magnetic buff to see if it would at least go back to the base magnetism rate but that didn't work. im on year four and im trying for true perfection so i don't want to restart, but it makes playing really frustrating when it feels like i have to run to each item and collect it manually.
Screenshots/video: I tried to upload a video but mp4 isn't supported so i converted it to .gif format and it still rejected it so im not sure how to add a video, I'll try to describe what the video was. it was me running around the ginger island farm collecting bananas and mangos from trees, before when the rings worked i was able to run from tree to tree and not have to stop in between at all to collect the fruits, they would all just follow after me until they entered my inventory. now most of the fruits just fall to the ground, and maybe three or four out of eighteen will make it into my inventory, and it's like this with anything i try to collect. at the end i showed the radius with and without the ring on so you can see it's the same either way
On the day of your issue, did you load your game through the Load Game menu (you wake up in the bed)? Or was it an "emergency load" (i.e. one where you start mid-day wherever you left off)? it was through the load game menu, id never used the emergency load thing until a couple (realtime) days after the bug occurred but the problem persists after reloading the game
Any other info that might be relevant: ive read online that other people have this issue when forging any type of magnetic ring with any other ring (unfortunately i read this after the fact) and that generally it ruins the magnetism for the save file permanently. so im pretty sure that's what happened to me too, apparently this was a bug on pc too but it's been patched there. i hope this can get fixed for mobile, this is one of my favourite games and i love it so thank you for the great work :)
