Closed Teleporter Bug

The ship level teliport system is super frustrating. It nearly always, and i mean constantly fails to send you to the planet and instead just cycles you back to the pad. i have almost starved while trying to get it to work before it finally and for no reason works after 100+ tries. I'm sure I'm not the only one suffering this things wrath but i hope its in the works to get fixed.

 

Try to (if one don't work, get to the next one)

- Get nude then try to beam down
- Move to another planet
- Try to beam in a multiplayer server
- Create another char
- Uninstall/Reinstall

Then, if that don't work, wait for a fix

Hope this will help

 

these are some rather extreme measures for what im sure is only a bug in the game. perhaps an update could make the ship to planet workings more stable and efficient? i mean the game is still in development after all.

 

Been having the same problem, but on only one of my machines... so far. It works perfectly fine on my powerhouse/server capacity machine that can load the entirety of the game in mere seconds. I run into the glitch only on my notebook machine, which is about 4 years old now and requires about a minute for the game window to even appear from the launcher. Call me crazy, but I think it may just be a question of power or loading time. Thinking one thread may be busy with loading the world below while the teleporter/ world change thread is looking for it to respond, which it won't since it's busy. With no response, the request times out and defaults you back to the ship. thinking a little longer timeout delay may help.

FYI, I have zero input as to how the game is actually coded. I'm just going off a 'were I to design it, that's how I'd do it' frame of mind.

 

Almost same here. After like 5 or 10 tries of teleporting down, my character doing it right. But it repeats every time when i'm trying to go down...

 

yeah there are points when it likes to work specifically if I'm killed it docent mind bringing be back down but if i return of my own accord its all glitchy about it.

 

Boyfriend and I both have this problem a lot, sometimes it takes like 7 to 10 tries to beam down to the planet. Never have a problem beaming up-- only down. Sometimes emptying my hands or shifting positions on the teleporter seems to help, but I'm not sure if that's actually related. I'm on a cheap, slightly outdated laptop, and he has a nice custom-built desktop, so I don't know if it's a question of computer power either.

Incidentally, this problem has never occurred for me in multiplayer.
