What did you do?

Have a Biter Egg spoil in your inventory while hovering over water with Mech Armor.

What happened?

Biters will spawn from the Biter Egg in the location where I was hovering, unable to move.

What did you expect to happen instead?

I expected either the biters to die instantly, or spawn at the closest land.

Does it happen always, once, or sometimes?

Always.

Thanks for the report. This is not a bug.

I'm sorry, while I admit I half expected this to happen it looks like dev oversight to me....

I experienced the same with Logistic robots carrying the egg. They can even walk around. How cannot this be a bug?

a bug is behavior not expected by dev/program. The expected behavior is bitter can't move and yes spawn on water. It's weird and not realist but not a bug as a software point of view.
