How to unlock the The Beaconator achievement

    As of 9th December 2018 this is partially glitched.

    If you are using an imported world (which I assume, 99% of the people going for this achievement on TA are), then you're probably using Showtime's achievement world.

    If you're using this, you CANNOT get the achievement by having the player on the SWITCH mining the beacon and replacing it.

    Instead, have the switch player stand next to the beacon, and have the hosting player (whether it be android, iOS, windows phone, win 10, whatever) mine the beacon and put it on top.

    This would ONLY unlock when I had the host doing the activity. When the host did the activity, it unlocked for the account on the switch.

    Hope this helps others that are having issues with this achievement.

    Silicon IcemanDo you know where I can find this achievement world for the switch you speak of (preferably with instructions)? Thanks.

    BLOOdREDkN7GHTthe "achievement world" has to be hosted by someone on a windows platform, not an option for me cause im not going to pay for multiplayer on both xbox and nintendo

    ElevExplorer64This may have been fixed. I unlocked this today on my Switch with no issues.
