[2.0.12] Character left Space Platform Hub

Post by Phnod »

I was in the middle of creating a new space platform while I had queued my character to land on Gleba while the platform was travelling from Aquilo. While in the process of renaming the new platform after it was launched, the remote view shifted back to my character when I reached Gleba for the landing animation, I entered remote view again to properly rename the new space platform again, and when I went back to my character, they were outside the original platform, able to move around and fly into space. (Thankfully not a softlock since I was able to "enter" the hub afterwards)
I haven't been able to replicate it again, but I think I viewed some other surface as I misclicked the platform name in the top left of the remote view.
It all happened really quickly, but I think the exact order of events was:
  • Was in the process of going from Aquilo to Gleba in one space platform
  • Launched a new space platform from Nauvis
  • When the new platform reached orbit, I started the process of renaming it (It was previously called "Gleba Transit", I was in the middle of adding the space platform hub symbol into the name)
  • Before I could confirm the name change, the remote view shifted to the original platform as it prepared to launch me to Gleba
  • I changed the remote view to the new space platform again to try renaming it again (I may have viewed other surfaces briefly before selecting the right view)
  • After renaming, I found myself still on the old space platform, outside of the hub and able to move around

I figured out the exact cause of this, I hit enter at the exact time the camera swapped to the cargo pod lifting off, it seems as though you can leave the drop pod with the vehicle enter/leave key.
