Got stuck and unable to move

[Nippee Ki Ye]

There should be an option to unstuck

I also fell through the floor, got stuck and lost all my stuff.

So I decided to play on a hosted session for my first playthrough, in case anyone would like to visit my world. I fell into a large chasm and there was no way for me to get out, and my pick was also broken from mining. I exited out of the game, and reloaded, and I was back at the altar. Not sure if this will work on single player, but it works in a hosted session.

being able to dig your way out of being stuck is one of the best parts...you can terraform steps out of a ledge to get back to safety.

You can teleport to your home or the last altar you visited

Dig yourself out using a pickaxe

[Etny2k]

dig your own grave

I had this happen and this seems an older post than a day or two, but I started playing a couple weeks ago and if you just quit to desktop regardless of where you are, it spawns you back at home.

"dig yourself out using a pickaxe" is great ... BUT, what if your pickaxe is broken, and you have no resources on you to craft a new one?

Point being, there should be a game mechanic to /unstuck yourself from the many world places you can get stuck. This is not a new thing in gaming, been around for years in many different games.

Here's one from me: I got stuck in a corner of an alley in Pikemead's Reach, behind a barrel. Jumping out desn't work, so I figure: hulk smash. Unfortunately trying to smash the barrel with ignited hammer my character got stuck mid action, with the hammer raised - I guess the surrounded collisions do not allow enough space. And because I got stuck mid-smash, the game does not allow me to change weapn, or get the pickaxe. I mean, I can select it, and I can click to make the attack, but nothing changes, because I am still halfway through an attack with the hammer. I figured: ok, not in shroud, let's just teleport. I can select mapp and teleport option, and I even hear the sound, but I am still stuck behind a barrel, in a hammer half-swing.

I fell through the ground a while back, broken pickaxe, and was in shroud. I thought there was no way out. Then it hit me. Just quit to the main menu and reload. Back at base.

I have also been stuck between barrels/walls/loot when landing from a glide. Trying to use an axe to smash the barrels, only to get stuck mid swing-animation. Could not change anything, fast travel, etc, and had to quit the game.

Dig yourself out, fast travel or simply quit to main menu then continue.

One in my party is currently stuck in unbreakable assets in the northern most Sun Temple. We need an unstuck feature. Took us forever to get here.

Bombs are the alternative to using a pick, I carry a stack for emergencies and the odd bug nest.
Once you upgrade the flame and have more altars its worth designating a couple of them for exploring so you don't end up with a long walk back if you need to either respawn or fast travel out of being stuck.
Down in the shroud the only option is to drop to the menu and back.

Since the unstuck would probably place you at the last altar/respawn a button might be superfluous but a loading screen tip certainly would hurt.

This is happening a lot to me recently since I starting using jump attack. I'm always stuck in the jumping animation and can't do anything but quit. Fix the bug or give us an unstuck command.
