I have been working on this project, it is a rifle platform tool with a retractable/magnetic stock and it would have a hostile tracker that would target local hostiles in the area like a torpedo bay on the prawn but handheld and with a tracker.
It also has a hostile tracker that locks onto hostile targets, I thought that this would be usefull in terms of self defense like the torpedo bay on a prawn suit but with a tracker.
I have noticed this game bug as well, I have a ps4 pro and I still have this issue. My solution is to keep using the grappling arm and if you are stuck to the point of no return then use the repulsion cannon. And one more thing, if you are ever suck…
I think the inactive lava zone is the scariest because of the sea dragons and the warpers, and especially when you accidentally fall in the lava with the prawn suit while you are being attacked by the sea dragon.
