I am doing LuaSurface.set_tiles() and might put water or not-on-map under the player. This kills the player.

I'd like to teleport the player to a nearby safe-to-exist spot. Is there an easy way to find such a spot?

First teleport player away, then place tiles then player.teleport(surface.find_non_colliding_position(players original position, other options))

Something like that anyway.
