I think it's because something broke after 1.65. Mind you, that's just my assumption, Ahruman would have to confirm it.

Welcome aboard, Commander! Ain't nowhere to go in interstellar space without a hyperspace drive, and Thargoids will destroy escape pods anyway.
There is a way out when stranded in interstellar space, btw - but not with the escape pod.


The log has this to say:

Code: Select all

14:45:41.941 [ShipEntity.abandonShip.notPossible]: Ship <ProxyPlayerEntity 0x1299a8a0>{"Cobra Mark III" position: (3158.52, 2950.46, 11508.7)
scanClass: CLASS_NEUTRAL status: STATUS_IN_FLIGHT} cannot be abandoned at this time.
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills
And any survivors, their debts I will certainly pay. There's always a way!

My InterstellarTweaks OXP makes the following possible outcomes of the plater ejecting whilst in interstellar space:

get picked up by the navy who are in the area
get picked up by newly arriving navy
gets shot by thargoids
meet no-one and die, i.e. the default (non-tweaked) behaviour.
