[Bug] While picking up a finished scanner got teleported to space
In the open world, on Prometheus, while attempting to retrieve a scanner once scanning was done for SMPL3: SCAN mission, the moment I picked it up, I got teleported to space and fell down, then died. At the same moment the pod was appearing in the sky.

Ewen MergedWhen I pick up radar in the smpl3 scan mission I teleport into the sky at the point the retrieval pod spawns and fall to my death, Please fix the problem.

Elissa - Producer AdminHi there, do you have a screen recording of this? How many times did it happen for you?

GaroomfThis happened only once over 44 hours of game the last two weeks. No video available. It feels I got teleported to the place where the pod spawns in space but can't tell for sure.

MattI've had this happen about twice over 2 different Open Worlds:
- Olympus OW on Medium that was made when OWs were first launched and the teleport in scanner pickup occurred about 2 months ago. No problems with the fall, but the sudden stop at the end was lethal.
- Styx OW on Hard which was created about two weeks ago and got teleported yesterday). Somehow I survived with maybe 1% health and broken legs.
I've tended not to take these SMPL3 scan missions as a result, but I'd say it's 100% chance of being teleported when picking up the scanner. I *think* I get teleported to the same position as the drop pod that is coming down, as there seems to be exhaust when initially teleported....though it was the exhaust that launched me up initially but maybe exhaust from retro rockets.
No video of the problem. -

MattNot 100% sure but I think the cause may be when you pick up the scanner when it is damaged....repairing the scanner seems to avoid the issue. Avoided the launch into space for the first doing this. Will try to confirm this, but the scan mission doesn't come up often and it's not a terribly desirable mission atm.
Also this looks like another duplicate if found trying to find this post again.

MattSo far repairing the scanner (twice more) before picking it up seems to avoid the issue. So seems like a damaged scanner is related to the cause of getting launched out.
