[wheybags] Death after enclosed vehicle mining
Posted: Thu Dec 14, 2017 11:36 am
When I first discovered the Cliff Jumping Bug I also found that driving into the corner of a cliff space and fencing myself in with chests, I couldn't exit my car. I tried mining my car, expecting that either I would end up on the upper cliff edge or unmoved but unharmed. It seems Factorio tries to place the player character before moving the car to inventory, or something else, causing a death like the picture below.
It's not exclusive to cliffs, since the same can be achieved with 4x4 ring of chests and a car in the middle. Place all the chests but one, get in the car, place the last one so you can't exit the car with ENTER, and then mining your own car kills you. Ideally players would be prevented from mining their car(nothing happens) the same way ENTER does nothing when you're enclosed. Is this a feature? Save files attached for cliff setup and chest setup.
