Steps:
1. With my pickaxe in hand, and a belly full of HQ Mutton Stew, I began gathering the Mythril Ore in the vicinity.
2. Very athletic, I jumped on and off the rocks to walk the straighter path to the next LV35 mineral deposit.
3. Carelessly, I jumped too early and landed into a cactus plant. (Ouch!)
4. As much as I ran, I couldn't budge. I attempted to jump out, in which the animation was acting funny. If I jumped straight up and down without moving forward or backward, the animation was fine. However, if I did jump forward or back, the animation would come to a slow at the high point, then snap to the ground when the cycle was suppose to end.
5. I summoned my trusty chocobo and ahriman to help, but to no solution. They couldn't pull me out.
6. Finally, I decided to teleport out as I waited for a GM to answer the call.
7. GM Xetyline came to my aid as I deliberately jumped onto the cactus again to see if this would reoccur. Indeed, I was stuck again, but this time, my Well Fed status was no longer there.
8. After GM Xetyline released me and left. I began walking around the cactus to understand how and why. In my curiousity, I noticed that I cannot walk through the cactus model, as if there was an invisible piece of geometry guarding the plant. Because it is edged up near a rock, you cannot walk between the rock and the cactus, which is where I was stuck. However, if you drop (not jump) down between the rock and cactus, there seems to be an even smaller invisible cube in between the cactus and the rock, blocking the walking path. I think it is safe to assume that a gap between these pieces of geometry exist, and a character can land between them by jumping above the geometry.

Solutions:
- Move the cactus away from the rock enough for a walking path.
- Make the cactus able to be walked through.
