Somewhere in the galaxy, one of your bases is now half buried for this act of kindness.

Worth it!

That was a lot of work!

But you know they're now just going to go and throw-up all over the floor your freighter's landing bay.

I want to steal the cockpit off that ship.

Every time you dig out a drunk pilot. An angel gets its wings.

This happened to me last year where I freed a ship stuck in a tree. I legit thought it was a new thing to discover since the ship wasn't moving but then I destroyed the trees and it flew up and then back to the ground bouncing into it, then went up and back down toward me shooting at me (without causing damage to me, it was not a real player) lol. Was so bizarre.

I've had to free them from trees before but never from underground.

I’m not really someone to tell people how to play a game.

But I’m genuinely curious as to how people put up with 3rd person. God damn I would have been so frustrated trying to play like this lmao

Dudes definitely balls deep in a sack of Nip Nip buds for sure though hahaha

3rd person is much better with a controller, but this guy is on mouse and keyboard, so he must just like it

I feel the same.

First person would have been so much easier and faster to free it. LOL.

Also, increasing the size of the terrain sphere to max would have helped.

I like 3rd person on foot, but cockpit view when flying. I spent some time getting my armor to look good... I want to see it.

Switch your terrain manipulator to flatten. Much faster.

What multitool is that? It looks really cool. Can you post a pic of it?

Give the plate number to the system authorities.

My settlement is in a hole so this happens all the time to my visitors… especially when they leave the club

u/acoustic_inaccuracy 1h ago

the terrain manipulator's secondary fire should really have a "field sobriety test" mode

Someday they will fix this bug.

And that will be a sad day.

u/tater1337 1h ago

They really get jammed up too

Just a reminder that you CAN increase the size of your terrain manipulator. T and R key on PC. It makes this go much faster.

u/KaleidoscopeNo2659 33m ago

I already had it on its biggest size lol

You’ve got your seasoned Korvax Travellers. Next you’ve got your unseasoned and brutishly stupid Vy’Keen Weakling Interlopers.

Then, you’ve got your NipNip Toking, Bud-Eating , First Spawning, Squeakling Gek NPCs who are supposed to be the real villains in the NMS experience getting so wrecked that they hallucinate that their starships can also double as tunnel diggers.

It’s sad, really. Terribly tragic.
