A player reported a rare but serious bug in Elite Dangerous where their ship vanished after landing near a base, leaving them stranded 80 kilometers away with no way to interact with the missing vessel. This issue prevents normal gameplay continuation and highlights a critical flaw in ship spawning or persistence mechanics. Affected commanders face vulnerability and potential loss of progress until recovery options or fixes are implemented. The incident underscores the importance of robust bug resolution to maintain player experience in the evolving live service.
