They spawn as you get near the volume. Size does not matter. Distance to an edge is what it uses. Vertical is much closer than horizontal. Grouped volumes should spawn them together and trigger together.
Edit:
And network latency is important. You move, server receives, server spawns, server tells you, you spawn, then it gets rendered. That is 2x your latency plus the instantiate and rendering delays.
It may be a bug, but I actually like it. A reason to get out of the forest and go some place. I'd probably also like it if the forest burned down on day 21 and you had to leave or die.
Never seen. Does it happen again on game restart?
There have been no changes to spawn in distances. Sleeper volume positions/sizes and sleeper locations do vary by POI and are up to each designer to place. Vertical separation is strict to keep performance up, so climbing into a ceiling combined with nowhere to hide the spawn may be what you saw in that case.

My 3900 takes about .5 to 1 seconds. Worse case maybe 2 seconds. Don't know how you manage that long with that CPU. Never seen an hourglass while it happened. 3 other devs just told be the same thing. Not that long and never an hourglass.
Are you using any mods?
Not happening in this game. Would require switching the rendering pipeline to HDRP, which would require a rewrite of our gfx system and that would take a lot of time.
No change from A19.
Just saying that the current system is nonsensical. Of course it can be changed in any number of ways.
Yeah, we had talked about that 1-2 years ago. Our "forge" is a smelter, not a forge. It doesn't even make sense to craft anything that isn't directly cast like the ingots themselves and even in that case it's pointlessly complicated and silly. You don't keep 5 different materials in a smelter and magically keep them separate. 😃

A simple modlet to prevent installation of a "silencer" on a revolver.
https://robert.hentschke-keramik.de/7dtd/Gazz-SantaHatMod.zip
Repurposes the skull cap mod as a santa hat mod. Since this doesn't add/remove any items it can not break savegames.

"Silly sounds" are in effect while you use an auger or chainsaw making them a whole lot quieter.

I take the power quest like any other - but only if I can do them without standing around and waiting for nighttime and if they are as close as other quests. Given the time window and the fact that few POI are set up for that it, resulting in long travel distance, means that 95% of the time they are genuinely bad choices.
This is working as intended. Not every perk is useful in every situation.
