Apologies if this is a duplicate or known issue, but I couldn’t find it. I’ve lost three Hearthlings because they’ve gone into, fallen into, or whatever a nearby lake and can’t seem to get out. They swim around until they starve to death. Has anyone else seen this? Has it been reported?
Select the desired hearthling, open the console and type teleport. You now have a little flag in your mouse, that when placed in your world will move the hearthling to it.
