blur: Get into the upper atmosphere, boost, and you'll be there in no time.

Just think outside the box.
Tried that it still doesn't work, these places just don't exist in the game. It's Sean Murrey's way of griefing the player. I am convinced he hates his customers.

It does work. Keep trying.

nipsen: ..It's probably calculated by the actual speed you're traveling towards the object, instead of through a route. So the time to arrive will increase a little bit when the average speed towards the waypoint becomes more accurate. ..I think..

nipsen: You mean, like go into space? But the waypoint is down on the planet, that makes no sense!
No, if I meant "go into space" I'd say, "go into space".

You can boost in the upper atmosphere, which isn't space.

:D I understood what you meant, I just thought that entire conversation was very funny.

Starkrun: The best bet is to go into orbit and over shoot it then bear down from space directly on it.
I used to do that, now I fly and look for drop pods in the flight path. Doing this I have upgraded my suit to 42 slots (only 2 of the drop pods have I used a signal tower to find and one I got from a station).

It was always my assumption that this happens because it generates everything when you land and as you find crash sites they move further away from you because you've already explored the close ones. I'm sure I'm wrong, but it is what helps me sleep at night.
Well I'm having different issue with crashed ships in that it's sending me to the same spot, again and again but there is no ship there. even crashed a couple of time when I landed near.

I've gone halfway around the planet, started anew and it tries to send me back to that spot again..
I've even tried warping out and back into the system to fix it, no joy.

Yes it will. Try another planet in the system. If you come back arrive at a different location, Gek towers work best. Gold mine planet is Gek system with pirates overhead. Went from 32 spaces to 48 space. Ships and towers all over the place.
Had it happen to me today. I noticed that sometimes, the ship is "in" the planet, sometimes it is not. (same ship) What I did was went to space station, then went back to planet, flew to north pole (top) then looped down until I saw it. At that point I engaged boost and nosedived into the atmosphere right at the ship. Finally got there. Unfortunately, the ship was only worth scrapping, not taking.

For those that do not know, you can scrap the tech from the ship if you do it right. Make sure you have as many open slots in your current ship inventory as possible. 4 is usually enough until you get larger ships. Go to target ship, transfer inventory and take the junk ship. Disassemble everythingyou can, then return to the ship you left, it will have a different name and may even look different. I had mine turn into what looked like an x-wing and was called Maz. No joke. Anyway, when you get back to your ship, click to take it back (it ttransforms back into the ship you had) Move inventory back then take control. Old ship scrapped, lots of good loot if you are lucky.
