Any one else experienced this behavior? Should I have put this in the bugs thread? Portal is 9 away from Base computer. ![20190920233328_1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/etarc/original/3X/6/e/6e6e003087815f36d232808d0135f38d8a841525.jpeg) ![20190920233331_1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/etarc/original/3X/5/7/576f77dc3692c514a781d50c4115fda1626f57b5.jpeg) ---

This should only happen at bases when you use a teleporter to a base with no teleporter. Did you use a planet portal or the Nexus teleporter? Was the base teleporter powered at that time? Not sure if it matters. Mine are powered with proximity switches and I still come through them. Maybe no power at all might make a difference. ---

This was an issue that plagued Next at launch and was patched eventually, sounds like it’s resurfaced 🙈 ---

From stations and from my other bases. Yes fully powered, no switches. Base complexity on Ultra. _Edit:_ I’m even more concerned now that I have found a B-class activated indium deposit in a deep cave with no actual (natural) opening to the surface. I was hoping to put a portal in the cave and put the base computer 350u away at the abandoned Trade Platform. This is a very extreme planet, so everything has to be underground. But of course, I expect my tunnels to the hotspot to fill in. ---

You could use a short-range teleporter to bridge the gap between your base computer/portal and the dig site. ---

That is a very good idea, thank you. I did notice that today, when I ported from my newest base in another system, I did respawn through the base Portal this time. So I guess it’s still a bit iffy. ---

In regards to your original issue: First time that I noticed it was yesterday and just a couple of times. I was in the process of moving a base and thought that it was a byproduct of that. Today the old base is deleted but it continues to happen every once in a while. I’m thinking that it’s a bug. ---
