[Suggestion] Fix spawning so that it can auto respawn you if in a unplayable area

7 votes

I was just mining a dead racoon to get some bones and my body got flung across the entire map at mock one and at a very high distance as well. While I was being launched out of the map it put me in a loading screen that never ended then crashed so I reloaded the game back up to tried again to log back in and ever sense then it keeps crashing every time I log in after a long period of waiting. My friend who I am playing with showed me on his map that my body is very far out of bounds and I think that is why its not letting me log back in sense I'm out the the Playable area.
I will leave a image of my dead body location icon.

We were mining in one of the caves near the Mammoth, I fell into the abyss at the end of the cave, my teammates began building down to revive me when a platform was accidentally trapping them in the abyss as well, they did NOT die from the fall, they were just unable to get out of a small area and could not jump or move. They used "unstuck", they were teleported and arrived dead in the desert biome (unplayable currently) we could not retrieve their equipment of course. I respawned, went back to the cave and upon my attempt to get to the bottom I became stuck in the same crevasse, hit "unstuck" and was killed and teleported to the same desert area ( I could see their dropped equipment). This obviously wouldn't be a huge issue if the area was open and it didn't kill us in the process, but for this weekend, we lost a TON of equipment.

While exploring the southern artic (around N14) a player from my group was launched vertically after killing a wolf. They were killed for leaving the playable area and their body was dropped on top of unscalable moutain.

Beta 5, 30 lvl character with all my toys including hunting rifle died in the cave to the desert and didn't re-spawn in the bedroll nearby, but instead deep in an out of bounds area (N9) that was impossible to get to within the 10secs limit. Equipment earned after hours of grinding to get from lvl 26 to 30 lost.

When stuck in caves , The unstuck will spawn in out of bounds . Unable to retrieve items . Give a respawn location option
