Winter Harbor, ridiculously amateurish bug.

Fix this game's outdated mechanics!

Out here, in 'WINTER HARBOR', there is a horrible bug where fisherman can just instantly kill players, after casting a net on them, near an NPC named 'Urian'. When I resurrected, I couldn't 'Hide' to return to my corpse. and it just says, "You cannot hide while on board a ship". How the heck can you leave it broken like that!?

If a dead player's, ghosted corpse, walks ALL THE WAY out of the entire harbor area, and rezzes, they are DEFINITELY NOT ON THE SHIP ANY LONGER. In that moment, a player should definitely be able to hide, or do whatever they have to, to try and return to their corpse, because this is a ridiculously programmed NPC "gotcha" trap that definitely should have had more nuance to it.
 
Thanks for your report.

What you're describing is part of a broader known issue where players may remain flagged as being "on a ship" after walking over or interacting with a boat, and not exited through normal means. We’re actively working on a solution to better detect and clear this state so players aren’t unfairly restricted after situations like these, and also to prevent ships from mistakenly spawning in inaccessible areas. In the meantime, we appreciate your patience.

That said, please try to keep reports constructive and respectful. We're always open to feedback, especially on frustrating bugs, but hostile or aggressive language doesn’t help the process. We’re all here to improve the game experience together.
