Check the conditions
300 mNearest-road limit for the new return option
Everyone offNo other player seated in or standing on the vehicle
1.0.1Early Access update, November 1
The new road-return offer appears when you use Unstuck Vehicle and the vehicle is not actually stuck. The developer says it searches for the nearest road within 300 metres. This is not a promise of a teleport from anywhere in the world.[1]
Recover the vehicle
The documented result is a vehicle placed in a road lane, facing along the road, with your character beside it. The notes do not specify a universal shortcut for opening this option, so follow the menu shown in your build.[1]
If there is no road-return offer
| Situation | Next check |
|---|---|
| Another player is on the vehicle | Ask them to get off completely, including standing on its roof. |
| No road within the stated range | Do not expect this feature to find a distant road. Recheck your location. |
| Vehicle is physically stuck | The update distinguishes the usual unstuck action from its new not-stuck road-return prompt. |
| Multiplayer vehicle was tipped upright, engine runs but it will not move | For the documented non-host bug, exit the seat and sit again. |
These branches come from the developer’s 1.0.1 description; we have not independently tested them in every terrain or vehicle.[1] If the symptom is an ignition failure, return to the no-start checks instead of repeating recovery.
