The game has a fail safe that, if the rockcrakers can't be called (the terrain does't allow it for whathever reason it may be) the metor just dissapear, happended to me on a scort mission, the metor fell on a really small cave that had no space for the rockcrakers
I've had this happen to me too. I was waiting for the rock crackers and I was wondering, "where are they? They should be here already." And then I see the plague hearts on the ground
This happened to me yesterday. I was so confused, someone said that because it spawn close to the giant boss machine it couldn't do the usual process and skip entirely.
I like how this deriller has no promotions so he is greenbeard and he was mining this rock and got plagueheaers so he thinks it is the right way to get them
it happen often in industrial sabotage if the meteor is close to the wires connecting the caretaker to the power supply. and in your case its so close that the ground doesn't even convert to the usual hot floor so before it even landed it already knows that he's not supposed to be there lol.
Meteor shenanigans are pretty funny at times. I had a set of smol meteors land in one mission, one of them landed on a Korlok. It was instantly killed, similar to what Doretta does.
That would actually be really cool! Imagine if Mission Control diverted Molly to the meteor, to crack it in Escort missions, instead of having to stop and call rockcrackers!
while mining for gold i. meteor disappearing in scout's peripheral ii. plaguehearts were pinged only for them to turn around with driller standing proudly on the plaguehearts is peak comedy
@@doodishere6176it's not getting slippery, it's turning into a railcannon. This used to never happen in earlier builds. I do wonder what they changed to mess this up
@@statera5854 You would happen to know that because the devs confirmed right? When and where specifically? RU-vid? Which stream and the timestamp? Website? What url
I love the way his drg-addled brain doesn't process neither the glow from the meteor disappearing, nor the ping the driller makes on plague hearts because he's busy mining the most useless resource in the game.
Four dwarves who don't ignore gold will easily mine more credits in the same amount of time as doing secondary objectives. But people don't call secondary objectives useless.
credits are useful, but the amount you get from gold is practically nothing compared to mission completion credits. Mining gold takes time, which means you complete missions slower, which means you don't gain as many credits. In other words, mining gold actively loses you credits.
And here we see the weakest greenbeard. Unbound by the concepts and horrors of DRG, they revel in their blissful strength, nearly paralleling that of Karl.
If you look at the other comments they all say it's to do with the terrain and whether or not the rock crackers can land properly, if not the meteorite despawns
Had a similar situation where the meteor landed, and as soon as it contacted ground, it disappeared, and the plague hearts were left It looks like dropping sand blocks on a torch in minecraft. Poof. Here's your item
The ground wasn't turned into its usual hot rock. I hypothesize the devs added some sort of failsafe feature when something goes wrong. Although, I don't know if anything else went wrong. Doesn't seem to have carved the map a all.
@@lorenzpacis3249 the same thing literally happened to me a little bit ago. the meteor fell, stared to turn the ground into hot rock, stopped after a little, and then just vanished
Yeah, this actually happened to me a week or so ago, just soloing driller, wanted to clear some room and- well free plaugehearts. Had no idea why and couldn't find anyone talking about it.
