[BUG] Falling through station?

[pjknibbs]

Well, this one is interesting. I'd just delivered a ship to a station and was standing in the docking area near it. Opened the map and chose external view on a Xenon ship nearby. When I pressed F1 to return to normal view, I fell through the floor of the docking bay and then went into a cycle where I would fall down into space outside the bottom of the bay, then reset back to the bay floor and start falling again? I opened the map and closed it again, and that stopped me falling--unfortunately I was now inside the bottom of the docking bay with no obvious way to get out, so I had to quit out of the game and hope that my last save isn't too far back!

That sounds like this well-known issue that the devs are having problems with reliably reproducing in the office.

If you have researched teleport you an just use that. If you are sitting in the pilot seat, restarting the game (as in program) should suffice. If not in worst case you are completely stuck and need to load an older save.
I know that this is awful. But that bug has been around since the start (I had it on third day the first time I think and posted a save) and seems to be tied to something that happens local.
