How is a boat teleporting into a wall not a bug?

It IS a bug. How do you know he didn't lose connection? It should have "fell" on the floor where he was standing when he disconnected

you have 1 post and joined yesterday...and posted 6min after mine........ wow, yeah, totally not obvious what you just did there....... ..... .. ...... fucking amateur asshat.

it is intended for stuff to port a little bit away when someone logs off with stuff above them so they are able to log back in, he.... you should know that and its not a bug, they completely intend it that way and just dont give a shit(or not enough to go fix it, at least now) if you are carrying a boat inside a house and get disconnected for whatever reason

Well, how is it not a bug if it's putting the boat in a spot where you can't go, reach, or place objects? And why can't you log off while holding an object, and then log back in holding the object?

because when you log out the object must go on the ground, if it goes directly were you are it will prevent you from logging in again. so it ports away a little.

there are a million things more important that the devs are putting their time and effort into in this game then to figure out a way to not make it port into unreachable places in a house. you deserve to lose the boat if you let it happen.

There are also inherent problems with allowing an object to be picked up and sucked into paradox space.

Yeah except here is the problem; There's already design in place to keep it from dropping onto other objects with hitboxes. The problem is the black space has no hitbox, there's just a barrier. All they need to do is create a hitbox area in the first say 5 tiles of black around each house/cellar and you're golden.

Furthermore, boats sometimes need to be placed inside, and with how the server's been lately (read: terrible) some of us are being DCed sometimes every few minutes. It's not conceivable to you that in a game that lags this badly, he may have just gotten disconnected against his will? Furthermore, there's really no reason to log out holding an object, so I don't see why you'd assume he did it willingly either way.

It's a bug when the object lands on an inaccessible space. The game does not properly check for this. Probably just an oversight, but one that needs to be addressed, as this has been happening to a lot of people lately and it is NOT their fault. Humans do not have an innate ability to psychically know the unintented behaviours of faulty game mechanics. If you do, well, we need to ship you off to NASA right away. I'm sure they'd find some use for your unique talents.
