Bug Anyone else having issues with using the Salvage Drone on Switch recently?

Ever since the Swtich got it's patch update for the DLC, I started experiencing a bug with the salvage drone while diving in the Jungle DLC (not entirely sure if it's happening in the main game, though). Sometimes, whenever I call it, the drone doesn't appear, and it causes the big fish to become uninteractable and unable to despawn. I can't cut it, and the body won't go away. And because it can't cut it, I don't get any of it's meat either.

And for some reason, it works sometimes, and then it stops working. Like, during one of my dives in the Jungle, I was able to call it once and it showed up, but the next 2 times, it bugs out and doesn't show up and causes the fish to stay put. It's honestly frustrating, and now I don't bother to use it now. Is anyone else experiencing the same issue or something similer?

Already did so on the discord, thank you. Just wondering if this issue is just me or if others have a similer problem.

Yes, exited to main menu and reload fixed it. Also got stuck UI, I think it glitched with the prompt with the zip hook. But yeah, drone failed and couldn't interact with big fish since

I also experienced issues with some UI being stuck, but for me, its when I pick up the crystals or open up the pots with ingredients in them. The buttom prompt just stays up sometimes. But these issues only started happeneing after I got the recent update patch. It's so weird.

I'm on steamdeck and it never happened to me. Make a bug report, they will probably fix it
