Character model bumping/floating above the ground
Hello, i´ve the following problem:

Whenever i "try" to land after a jump or i used the suit jetpack, i´m just floating or better sliding away on the ground. I don´t talk about high speed, simply just a normal jump from one cargo container to another without using the jetpack isen´t possible for me. If i wouldn´t press any buttons or there is something in my way, i slide endless.

I just jumped forwards and stopped doing anything then and i float all the way along my platform.
(Check the legs in the picture, it´s like i would use jetpack and fly in the air)

? ^^

Everything is vanilla, i´m pretty new let´s say. SP StarSystem on the Earth.
And it was Shift+F11 ( My first time using this ).

It seems that a server / game restart fixes it but it appears again after a while ( don´t know what´s triggering it ).

(Sim speed as in the picture)

I´ll check the sim speed when it appears again.

Working as intended.

the bumping and weird character positioning happens when you and the constructs bounding box go out of sync... reloading should fix that.

I've had this happen too. Imagine the end game win sequence in the old school solitare where the cards bounce across the screen almost forever. Yeah, that happens when you're moving while dropping to the ground where you'll just keep on bouncing seemingly forever until you turn the jetpack back on and drop again while staying still. Its a fairly new thing and annoying af.

Weird, havent experienced it myself.

Well, to summarize it:

For me, it seems that this problem/bug occurs the longer you play without restarting the server/game and the more other performance issues appeared like "too many blocks in the world" or "too many blocks interacting with each other". Sim speed don´t seems to be important.

If the problem occurs, it´s fairly impossible to jump from block to block or to land with your jetpack without completely holding still before you land. Otherwise you just glide away.

Restart fixes it.

Yeah, I've recently encountered this as well, and while a restart fixes this, it comes back after a while. I think it's basically a throw of the dice, as I did not experience this bug before.

I'll try to dismount my old base and see what'll happen, maybe there's too much stuff built... but then again, that would make little sense
