Glitches

There are a few glitches in Exocraft, most of them purely visual, the visual glitches can be solved by simply reloading the page, or exiting and re-entering on the app versions.

## Known Glitches

For most bugs it's suggested to Reload the page or exit and re-open the app beforehand it's recommended you place down a Beacon, as it may send you back to a Trading Post.

## List of Glitch

### Crystal Lag Shower

After warping to a location far from Trading Post, plenty of Crystal pours from the top left corner towards a nearby location which may lag the game momentarily and shake the screen. This is caused when the game thinks the Crystal is new, and just 'rained down' from the sky, when it has not and was normally excavated.

*Fix*: An indirect fix is to collect the crystal to reduce lag.

### Leviathans Curse

Invisible Leviathan core after you defeat the Leviathan.

*Cause*: Map moves and (possibly) a Storm will move the core to a different location around the map.

*Fix*: Reload the page, or exit and re-open the ap

A player who just fast traveled will keep reappearing and fast traveling in the same direction.

*Cause:* Unknown.

*Fix*: Either wait and it will disappear, or move away from the area.

### Disobedient Drone

After you revive a Drone it does not show up in Drone Storage or Active Drones.

*Cause:* Unknown.

*Fix:* Reload the game or close and re-open the app.

### Fake Mines, Guardians and Shipwrecks

Occasionally you may come across 2 mines stacked on top of each other. In a "fake" mine, the Guardians are static and will not react to player movements, and when a Drone is sent out on their position, the Mine along with its Guardians will self-destruct and disappear.

There are also isolated guardians not guarding any nearby mine. Sending a drone towards them would also cause the guardian to self-destruct.

Alternatively a shipwreck would self-destruct when a drone is sent towards it.

*Cause:* Server lag which did not delete the mine, guardian or shipwreck normally to prevent overcrowding of the map.

*Fix:* Server side not client-side, impossible to fix unless the Devs patch it.

### Phantom Trading Post

When you warp to a Trading Post you can't interact with anything but the Hangar, and there is fauna clipping in the buildings.

*Fix*: Enter the Hangar and exit, it will warp you to the real Trading Post, or reload the tab.

### Warp failure

Sometimes warping towards a trading post would fail, the player can access the hangar but exiting it would make player realize he is halfway towards the trading post.

### Unable to change active exocraft in hangar

Sometimes after changing to an invalid setup for an exocraft in hangar, then fixing it, the player will find the active exocraft cannot be changed.

*Cause:* The invalid setup is stored in some memory location which prevents changing the active exocraft unless fixed, but the fixed setup is not synchronized with the memory.

*Fix:* Reload the game or close and re-open the app.

### Warp speed glitch

When you warp to a Trading Post, but doesn't do anything, until you move and then you move at warp speed.

Cant turn unless using mouse

You don't find any shipwrecks or mines.

*Cause:* *Unknown*

*Fix:* Go in hangar and then exit. Sometimes when this glitch happens, all you need to do is press the W key once and it will warp you to the desired location.

### Empty Hangar Glitch

When you enter the hangar, the player's exocraft doesn't appear. You can still do various hangar functions, such as entering the shop or checking the player's storage, but parts cannot be added or moved (as the exocraft cannot be seen). Entering and exiting the hangar will not fix the issue.

*Cause:* *Unknown*

*Fix:* Reload the game or close and re-open the app.

### Never Ending Race

This is the race that never ends, yes it goes on and on my friend. Some people started racing it, not knowing what it was, and they'll continue racing it forever just because...This is the race that never ends, yes it goes on and on my friend!

*Cause: Unknown*

*Fix:* This bug can be havoc on a bounty. Just exit your browser, close the tab or app, then come back 60 seconds later and the bug will be fixed. No what you did won't count for your bounty,
