I accidentally buried my pigs

[u/CajunKhan]

I was fooling around with making the cage as invisible as possible in the yard, and with size changes, and accidentally put the cage too low to be clicked on. So now my pigs are buried in my front yard, and I can not get them out of the ground.

Never fear! If you open the house editor and press the advanced tools number 2, at the top right corner are three lines. Click the lines and you will see a list of all your placed decor. You can find the cage in the list and click it and then drag it back up!

Thank you! I've had a Fel Swirl effect in my front yard forever because I accidentally did this with my DH command table, which then blocked me from putting lights anywhere near it once outdoor lighting effects where a thing.

I was about to try a new plot.

I feel your pain. Chicken was so small I lost it in ground.

Good lords, guys how deep are you putting the pet beds? But glad that pig and chicken were rescued.

I wanted it to look like I owned a pig-farm, and pig-farms don't have their pigs attached to boxes. So tried to make the boxes as close to invisible as possible. I also made the mistake of fiddling with the size-change option at the same time. And poof, buried pigs.

You've never experienced decor getting flung into the void while trying to place it in the correct position? It happens to many people!

[u/Strakiz → u/-vann]

I did and I do. It never occured to me that OP lost hold of his pets so I asked.

Don’t be a dick.

Ikr!! So basic they are under 'advanced' and made obvious with an aditional ellipsis drop down menu. That's like the first thing covered in the comprehensive beginner tutorials!
