Salvaging lost stuff

Question

I have this problem  I would like to talk about in here.

So... I lost my vehicle (car) in the ocean, because of... reasons.. So I have tried salvaging it by sticking dirt underneath it 1 by 1. It worked and I got it to the top of the ocean level. So next I brought my ship so I can put it on the ship and sail it back to the shore. I could not because the vehicle does not move with the ship.
So I was thinking of ways to get the car to the shore.

--> So next I build a blueprint road so I can build a road to the shore. Good: It works. Bad: You can't pick up the blueprint materials after is been build. So now you have a huge road going over the ocean. The only way to make it disappear is hammering each item for a very long time..or many dynamite. Answer--> Need a more efficient way to remove the blueprint objects after completion.

--> Another idea how about some way to salvage a vehicle?  Something like a crane for the ship. So I can hook objects to it and drag it to the shore.

--> Another idea how about some sort of balloon to stick into the car make it float to the surface, and drag or push that balloon around.

In other words. I could use something for salvaging objects because rebuilding another vehicle will add another object that might get lost in the ocean. Filling up the ocean with crap. Kinda like real life? but this time it's not massive plastic stuff.

You tried the unstuck command, right?

That said, here's a thought that just occurred to me (so I have never tried it)...

With the car onboard, point the ship towards shore and set it going. It will stop when the car hits the back of it. Now get in the car and drive it slowly towards the front of the ship.

No unstuck only works on the character. Or did you mean unstuck while sitting in the car?...il try that.

When I had the car on the boat, i had build a wall on the boat around the car. But the boat just cant move forward it makes it flip around the car. The car feels like a rock when its on the boat. Unmoveable object.

There is an option for Unstuck that will move a vehicle.

/unstuck 3

Mostly /unstuck 3 just gives you something to do while you are cursing.

Someone showed me once that you can tow a car with a car by building blocks that touch both. Drive the unstuck one and it pulls the stuck one. Then you only have a few blocks to break. I wonder if such a thing could be done with a raft?

I once found myself with an aquatic  car... but recovered it by  putting dirt blocks under it gradually leading and  bringing it to  the surface...i then  built a causeway  with dirt leading back to shore...and saved  for another  tree / animal smashing   time :D
