Vgstation13: Metaclub: Shuttle Landing Projects Flames Into Vox Outpost

[Kurfursten]

It's on an entirely different Z level, I have no idea how this could happen.

@Kammerjunk didn't see the flames but observed the box it lit on fire afterward, it sent a torrent of those blue fire effects up the main hallway of the outpost, concentrated near the 4-way intersection

[MadmanMartian]

the blue flames hit the teleport landmark, so they do what somebody falling out of the shuttle would do

End up in some other place on another Z level that's not the asteroid or the main station. Because the metaclub vox station is in 'deep space', it's in a valid zone to fall into.

[Kurfursten]

Gonna put this out there and it may be unpopular: I think we should move that trader base off deep space.

• Powergamers can simply count out how many tiles they need to go to get a roundstart salvage shuttle guaranteed
• It's the ultimate rapecave because there's no radio there ever
• An inconvenience to the traders, too, because no radio means they can't advertise
• This Issue

I wanna make a self contained tradepost inside a big ship. Can we do that for Meta?

[Kurfursten]

As long as you make sure its landing position is CLEARLY DEFINED at the dock so people wandering around the station don't get hit. Blinking airlock doesn't help from more than 7 tiles away - I nearly gibbed a miner tonight.

Saw this happen with the escape shuttle on Box. The fire was on the derelict z-level with no apparent pattern, just streams anywhere.
