I targeted a resource extraction site on a planetary ring, exited when it was safe about 800km out, instantly destroyed by a rock upon exit.
Bug, or working as intended?
Working as intended. Think about it, you're cruising at a high rate of speed into a quarry, bouncing and bumping along, you downshift and hit the brakes, you didn't see the boulder that's sitting in your path (probably due to excitement and the boulder is the same color as the surrounding rocks), smash, bang, totaled car, totaled driver.
Same thing has happened to me at resource extraction sites, sucks to be us at that point, move on.
Ps: I stand corrected, as some point out it's reported, disregard, but it makes sense to me
