random movement when jetpack on near parked ship

Wilhelm shared this bug 4 months ago
Reported

This one is weird. I park my ship and get out. If I activate my jetpack (with dampeners on), I slowly drift away from the ship. Once I get a certain distance away, the motion stops. If I activate the jetpack a distance away after walking away from the ship, no random movement. If I return to the ship by jetpack and stop, I slowly start to drift away.

At first I thought it was some kind of high wind situation and was like, 'wow, neat detail', but then I tested it a bit and it seems tied to proximity to the hydrogen starter ship.

I had a similar issue. I was being moved in a direction that I did not want to go while trying to weld a ship that had flipped over. This happened a couple of times.

I get this often when hovering close to any ship. Behaves exactly like you described.

I had this happen as well. It also stopped happening once I walked on my base. Then I go near the ship and it happens again. It also causes the player to bounce up and down when standing on the ship.

Hello Wilhelm,


I could not reproduce this issue on current Game version: v2.0.2.51. Does this issue still occurs for you?

Yes, the problem persists, as do the AMD card driver crashes. I hope this will finally be fixed.

Easy to reproduce.. append few times a day for me..

Easy to correct too.. just turn off jetpack and turn it on again... (maybe a but in the gyro of the backpack)

Hello Engineers,


I have reproduced and reported this issue internally. I have also added this thread to our internal ticket (SE2-29846).

Yes, still see it, but couldn't reproduce it until ~Objective 6: Back to Orbit. I notice it consistently when I land/park the hydrogen ship at the shipwreck but not with the grasshoppers prior. If you're trying to reproduce it, that spot around the shipwreck seems to be where I noticed it first? I started a new game and that's where it first started.

Yea it happened again when I played recently too.

I also still get this randomly with the current release, it seems to happen more often when the ship is in park with the landing gear active (vs. the connector parking).

This is worse in .2007. Whenever this happens you can quickly fix it by toggling Z for the space suit inertia dampeners to reset
