Getting totally stuck in debrig

[DarthMalak]

Seriously messed up.. I absolutely love this game but this needs to be fixed. It should not be necesarry to alt-f4 the game and restart...

As of the last update you can now go backwards slowly. Engines at full stop then hold S. Then keep holding S and eventually....

and eventually you'll still be stuck. Attempting to move retrograde fails to do so and the ship in question will remain to be stuck. Or at least that is what has happened to me the 2 times I've gotten wedged.

I have gotten stuck as well, but I was not paying attention while in battle, my screw up, Lesson learned watch what I am doing.

Why is space junk invulnerable? You can blow up ships, even dreadnoughts, but not the space junk from an old Tennhausen?

They should let the player build a new ship inside the invulnerable shell of a junked ship. Then you could play the game in easy mode.

The ships have reverse now, granted is really slow but it works...

I did not come out of warp speed in time and I managed to get lodged inside one of the satellite things you can hack. It and my ship were sparking and emitting debris and jiggling all around until it finally exploded. I was real worried there for a minute I was going to lose the ship.

Per the Devs - if you are stuck in rocks or ship debris - exit to the Main menu and Continue. The game will detect that you're too close to something and spawn you 50 meters away.

It's the first thing mentioned the PINNED FAQ thread - not that anybody bothers to read those.

Helpful Solutions to Common Problems
Without further ado...

Problem> Oh no! I've managed to get myself hung up in a big twisted piece of junk floating in space and I have no reverse thrusters! Help!

Solution> In most cases you should properly glance off and be fine, but if you get caught in a deep crevasse, you can exit to title and continue, the game will detect this situation and teleport you a little distance away.
