[0.16.5] Picking up a tank kills the player

Post by JihadJ0e »

Not sure if this is a new bug. If you attempt to collect a tank that you are inside of while moving and do not have sufficient space to store the tank and accessories you will die.

If you repeat the same actions as above, but come to a full stop first you become trapped under the tank, unable to move - but notably not dead. I attached a screen shot of this, although it is admittedly somewhat difficult to see.
Crushed by a tank - but not dead!

Thanks for the report. There's no perfect answer as to what should happen to the player when it's mined so I've disabled mining vehicles when there's a player in them for the next version of 0.16.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

Just tested this out, and it works great. If there is not sufficient inventory space to hold everything it does not let you collect it, if there is you pick it up. I would say that this is perfect.

Thank you and have a great day

Rseding's fix hasn't been released yet. You probably tested Wheybags's fix for viewtopic.php?t=55254 (which was released as part of 0.16.6). That said Wheybags approach is probably a satisfactory answer.

This bug was already fixed in 0.16.6, so are both mitigations going to be in 0.16.7 or is this one going to be cancelled/removed?

Wheybags fix in 16.6 seems to be what fixed it. The fix in 16.7, where you can not mine a vehicle you are in - is really frustrating, and is perhaps not really necessary anymore.

The big issue for me is that you have to press enter to enter/exit vehicles - which means I have to take my hand off the mouse, press enter, then grab the mouse and pick up the vehicle - before it was a smooth operation, now not so much. May I humbly suggest reverting this change.

My apologizes for missing viewtopic.php?t=55254 as it is essentially the same issue. For what it is worth, I did spend some time looking for a similar issue before I posted.

Thank you
