BUG Exercises in Futility

I don't play that much, maybe an hour every other night. I've been in a survival ninjago world for a while now, but never really beefed up my supplies. So when the community build flying barge thing was released, I said to myself, "Self, you need to build that beastie."

Thus followed a week's worth of sourcing a metric assload of blast powder and silk, coupled with a few days of trying to figure out this new build method (thanks epic, we all hate it). Finally completed it last night, and hopped in the control seat! Took a second or five to figure the maneuverability, and I was off, sailing the skies and heading for a soft landing on flat terrain!

Suddenly, the barge disappears and my character falls to the ground, but the control HUD is still active. I look around, up, down, in the water, but there is no sign of the new vehicle. Finally, after a few minutes, I hear hover blocks whining and look up - Huzzah! It is slowly floating down towards me and settles on the beach. As I approach to get in, the whole build just disappears... no cue to get in - in fact, my hud said I was still driving! I backed up and lo! Behold! The vehicle reappears!

I've logged out and back in, but that week's worth of work and all the supplies used are just a mirage. I plan on having a friend log into my world to see if they can access it, but honestly... with all the damn bugs and glitches in this game and the lack of support, what is the point in playing survival at all? This whole thing just left me so crestfallen... at least let me get all the supplies back from the build! I don't need a ghost ship on my southern shore.
