Getting Stuck In Place?
I have been playing the game since Launch. Yes there are minor bugs here and there. Which is to be expected with an Early Access game. The only bug I honestly have to complain about and I am not sure its just me. Is that once you have started building a House with the foundations. While walking in the house; I will randomly get stuck in a place on the floor and can not, move, jump, crouch or anything. Just spin in a circle. The worst part is if you haven't saved in a while. The only fix is to reload your last save and lose all the progress between then and when you got stuck.

I am curious if anyone else has ran into this issue and has figured a way to fix this, so it doesn't cost you the progression you make.

*I did find one fix in a different save using the Prep Table or Disassembly table. When I would keep getting stuck in one spot on the floor. I would look at the table and access it which forced my player to move to the table getting me Unstuck. But any time I walked over that one specific spot. Boom immediately stuck again. * This only works if you can get the tables built and within reach before getting stuck, and you better hope you have a save fairly before that happening.

Hopefully they can fix this issue in an update.

Just to clarify/verify how the UNSTUCK works on PC (didn't even know this game was out on console):
Click the ~/` key on keyboard, then type in UNSTUCK. The key is the one in the upper left corner of keyboard, right under the ESC key and above the TAB key. You will instantly be transported to a spot nearby, and won't experience any loss of progress or need to resort to your last save.

Had it twice today, never before, also inside the house, twice at exactly the same position, and each time the blocking stated after I exchanged a weapon on the rack, I did not know there was a deblock option, maybe to consider this as an option, like what is offered in Subnautica. I reverted to a saved game. But I got few strange things today as well, (1) when using the disassemble, I press E, then the game tells me there is nothing to disassemble, and I cannot ge "out" of the disassemble station, I can move around, but the E for leaving the station stays, does not react, also I could not select backpack any longer, went to a saved game, then, also first time, my water collector on the raft changed position, it was on a different location than where I build it originally..... maybe it is only me, and I nad none issues before 143, looks not so stable.....

There is another way to free the character. As I can't open the console ingame with any command, I've tried various things. When I then selected and placed a construction plan for a simple palm bed (only the green plan), I was suddenly able to move again. So I didn't have to restart the game and my savegame was preserved. Of course, I then saved immediately.

The command to open the console depend of the language setting of your keyboard.
Try the puntuation and brackets to the left of the "Enter" command button.
