Landing and crashes

When flying a spaceship near the ground, the game will automatically search for the nearest suitable landing spot, indicated by a circle and green arrows. If players get close enough to a landing spot, autopilot will take over and land the ship for them. If players cut thrust near the ground, they will begin to fall and can use the space bar to stay afloat. However, crashing into the ground or hitting space debris will result in a loud noise and send the ship careening off at a strange angle, but the ship does not appear to suffer any damage. It is important to note that if players engage "Cruise Mode" (default 'C') too close to the ground, it can result in crashing the ship, potentially causing significant damage or loss of the ship and its contents.
