Pick-up Boxes

[Lunartique]

I just lost two full printer racks because the pick-up box spawned them outside of the map, even asking staff for help and they can't find it.

Why not make it so, when pulling out entities from the pick-up box, it would be similar to how you place deployable shields and motion detectors? Before the entity gets placed, you can choose where to place it, and can see a ghost of how it would spawn, so that frustrations caused by pick-up boxes not working properly is avoided.

Yeah I think something should def be done to stop or at least help stop this happening. There are sits daily about people losing full printer racks, plots, etc when taking them out of pickup boxes.

For now though just try to not remove entities out of a box if you are in a small room, or you have your box placed in the corner of the room/ by the wall. It seems if you do it in the middle of a room or in a more open area its a lot less likely to happen.

A way to avoid this that I found, is to just destroy the pick-up box itself instead of taking out the items, the entities spawn right above where the pick-up box was. If you're in a small base you'll want to do this.

I can't count the number of times I've lost a full printer rack because of this

One time I was moving from one base to a bigger one and a buddy took our 5 printer racks out without realizing every single rack was going through the floor

+1 please fix this
