Hello!

I have two modded saves where landing on a planet is impossible, the pod just falls indefinitely.

I think the root cause is me not setting up the transitions properly in one version, but I can't verify. It is also only present in these saves, I can not reproduce it myself. Converting the save to a scenario then back also fixes it.

What did you do?
Player tried to land on modded planet.
What happened?
Player is falling indefinietly, stuck on the space platform's surface
What did you expect to happen instead? It might be obvious to you, but do it anyway!
landing on the planet
Does it happen always, once, or sometimes?
In selected saves always. I believe this version is the last one that may be affected by any error on my side that would cause it. 0.15.0

the saves won't attach

See 3638.

The 30mb is most likely 3, one of the saves was pruned to 9mb.

Thanks for the report. There were 2 issues here:

1. The pod wouldn't request to generate the planets surface correctly
2. If the surface did generate, but generated an area that was going to collide with the landed player it would get stuck forever.

Both are now fixed for the next release. But I suspect you want the surface to have walkable tiles of some sort otherwise you'll just get stuck when landing and have to reload a save file.
