Last night I thought I'd have a go at guardian stuff. So I flew off to the closest guardian site (900ly away) to a structure on top of a mountain. Then spent about 20 minutes looking for somewhere to land but the only place I could find was quiet far away. Spent another 20 minutes driving up the north face of the eiger (and tumbling back down) until I finally reached the guardian site which was COOL. Seriously, if anyone hasn't been to a guardian site I highly recommend going for a look.
I collected some stuff and with 2 items of cargo in my SRV I though I'd go back to the ship to unload. So rather than face the cliff edge again I dismissed the ship then recalled thinking it'll find somewhere closer to land, it always does, doesn't it? So I drove to just outside the site perimeter and recalled and my trusty ORCA just for it to arrive above my and hover there. It will not land! Its just sits above me with its SRV hatch open. I drove around for a good 30 minutes looking for somewhere flat (I assumed it was something to do with the terrain) but no matter what I did the ship will not land. So before I go all Jean-Luc Picard and make a jump in my Argo can someone explain what is going on. I suppose I could drive (or roll) all the way back down the mountain but that means driving back up again which to be honest was a nightmare and my SRV skills are not the best.
