[2.0.73] Mech Armor does not enable jet pack when facing sideways over water.

We are aware of them, but do not have solutions that don't cause other issues. They go here in order not to take space in the main bug thread list.

[2.0.73] Mech Armor does not enable jet pack when facing sideways over water.

Post by nullnode »

While building in the water with landfill on Nauvis, I discovered that I was able to delete the tile out from under me without any detection that I should be airborne in the mech armor, leaving me standing on the water until I move again. This is only a cosmetic bug as far as I can tell. I was unable to reproduce it while wearing no armor at all because the tile is not deletable then.

Steps to reproduce:

Wear mech armor with a personal roboport and at least 2 construction bots.
Build two tiles of landfill on a water section of Nauvis.
Face either right or left at the edge of a tile and delete both.
The engineer remains standing on the bare water.

Thank you for an absolutely amazing game!

Thanks for the report however I don't believe we will be doing anything about this.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
