Must be a glitch in that one spot. I guess you could make a little tree grove around it, just make sure you put enough trees your worker doesn’t go flying into the Earth’s crust

This happened to me on the same field on xbox. I had just done some minor painting to some areas before it appeared so not sure if it was related. I quit the game and restarted without saving and it was gone.

There’s never been anything there but field. I think it was a spot of ground with failed cultivation or weeds that just glitched.

I am on ps4 so options are limited. I might put a fence around it and charge admission.

Did you try flattening or raising the area? Smoothing isn't really a landscaping tool as much as it is a make it look pretty tool. It will alter terrain but only a small small amount. It really is just for smoothing.

Tried flattening, raising, lowering, and smoothing. All I can do is make it bigger. I just put grass around it and try to not fall in. I need to add some kind of physical barrier though, a worker drove the planter into it last night. Here’s a pic of a close call.

This situation puts a hole new meaning to "Hired Worker X is blocked by an object." Only now it's "Hired worker X has disappeared into a sinkhole". I envy all you fellas dealing with this. I'd have deleted the save regardless of time spent. I've deleted saves for far more minor infractions.

Fences? might that be a solution?

I tried downloading a fence mod but I can’t do placeables anywhere near the hole. To get them to place requires me to sacrifice a lot of field. I plan to just manually drive that corner from here on out.

Thanks

Well, I have turned off auto save on my welker map, and you all have me checking field 3 before I save and quit now. I'd rather lose 1 day of work then have to axe the whole save.

Is there anything like landscaping, or a certain time that of the year that makes this occur, or has it been completely random?

I haven't had it happened to me either. Is it only after you buy that field?

How about planting some threes arround it ?

Well good news is same group that made this map is making Millenial Farmer map have fun.

Like noraf mentioned a bunch of trees would block the workers once they grow a little, I put a row of them on marwell to stop the workers from jumping fields
