Spawning issues

The_Shark

So, I think this might be a problem for me in the future.
One minute, there was absolutely nothing around me.
Suddenly, a freaking Reaper spawns less then twenty meters in front of me, facing directly towards me.
If I hadn't been in creative at the time, I would have died. As it is, I nearly had a heart attack IRL. So, I guess what I'm asking is... could we fix it so that creatures, especially the Reaper, have a minimum spawn distance?

I had a similar thing happen to me this morning playing the normal/stable branch, on a newly generated world after the farming update was put out. The terrain seemed all generated, and some or all of the fish were there correctly. Then suddenly a reaper was rigt next to my seamoth and I was promptly grabbed and smashed to bits. Reefbacks also pop in really bad like this for me. Not always mind you, but enough that then the devs start focusing on performance work it would be nice to have something along the lines of minimum distance from player on spawn.

Thats something i have not experienced yet so far, but if that happened to me as well id surely die of a heart attack haha

I did find a trello card related to creature and terrain pop in, but it's not up until near the very end of the roadmap
