My base is no longer in the safe shallows but I went back there tonight and noticed there are 2 lifepod 5's in the shallow now. 1 is mine and 1 is a phantom that doesn't have the fabricator or anything in it.

    So this is a full on bug?

    I would both love and hate something like this to happen to me.

    I am pretty sure, I did a cache clear after the update before I loaded the save. I am not sure if that had anything to do with a 2nd lifepod 5 joining the party or not

    This happened to me once at random - the game warned about an error loading the save, loaded it anyway, and suddenly I had a duplicate lifepod that was just a shell. Quit, restarted, reloaded...all was well.

    Currently, we believe that the second lifepod was an intrusion from the Twilight Zone.

    I can confirm that the twilight zone lifepod 5 has left the ocean. All is well :-)

    Once upon a time, I hated having so much extra titanium, too. Then, after doing some construction and sub upgrades, I realized how much I needed every scrap I could find.

    Now, gold on the other hand... suffice it to say that if I ever get off 4546B, I'm going to have enough extra to buy a nice place to retire. Switzerland, maybe.

    You didn't have to stick your arm in a running propeller to make it vanish, did you? (Massive bonus credit if you get that reference!)

    No bonus points for me :(

    Only thing that reminded me of was the career of the model who stepped off a plan and lost an arm and an eye to a propeller...

    Nobody ever gets my Scott Pilgrim References - see below:


    Once I was being chased by a reaper in the dunes, so I ran into the mushroom forest. He got stuck .

    Be happy you have two Lifepod 2s. When I started playing we had just one Lifepod 2, uphill, in the snow, both ways and we LIKED IT!

    Ouch.

    Well, this was referencing a classic Twilight Zone episode called The Arrival. It's about a plane that arrives, and lands, at an airport...empty.
