Stuck under the map?

[OneThicChihuahua]

So I was playing the forest with my uncle and when we were about to enter a cave the ones where you have to climb the rope down in order to get inside but when i reached the bottom i some how got underground and i was just stuck there. Can someone please tell me if i can some how fix this.

There's literally like 10 drop-down ropes, gonna have to be more specific :P Also if you are truly trapped under the map, pretty much the only option is to reload, unless you have enough materials to make a save point (I'm assuming you are the host?), in which case, do so,save, exit to main menu, and just type "developermodeon" no spaces/hitting enter required, now when you reload the game, simply teleport to safety with some co-ordinates you know are safe. The following guide should explain it fully, along with some safe co-ordinates.

I didnt realize someone had actually responded back but i've already unstucked myself from under the map and you were asking what cave it was the one at the main cannibal village where you get the map and compass but thanks anyways i just had to kill myself then i was able to pick up my stuff that was under the map.

so what? 3 1/2 years later and this is still an issue? good to know! happened to me to. no way I would know coordinates not to mention I couldn't do anything when I was under the map. happened in a cave also. not sure if it was the same cave but it was deep underground. was 3 or 4 ropes down. ropes seemed overly long and unnecessary.

also nice to know all survival games seem to share this issue. luckily restarting here didn't seem quite as bad or quite the loss I experienced in sub Nautica after spending 8ish hours on a weekend only to "fall through the map" and lose all those hours of work and exploration. haven't played again since.

is there a survival game that auto-saves, even saves to a server to prevent such things from happening?
