Why does the map show different fish than what my friends are actually catching?
PaliaOverwolfTechnical
This is a game issue, not an app issue.
The app only displays what your game client loads. Sometimes Palia shows the wrong fish for other players visually in-game.
What happens:
- Your friend catches a plushie/ancient fish
- Their game shows the correct fish
- Your game displays it as a different fish (e.g., Tinfin instead of Floatfish plushie)
- The app shows what YOUR game sees
Important notes:
- Your own fish should always be accurate
- This visual bug affects what you see of OTHER players' fish
- You can verify this by looking at the fish model in-game
- Report this to the Palia team as a visual sync issue
Unfortunately, there's nothing the app can do to fix this since it only reads what the game displays.
