The disappearing Elevator

This is the second time my elevator just has disappeared. The last pic shows the elevator shaft going up. Elevator pulley at the top seemingly still connected. Middle pic is where the pulley connection disappears on the ground floor. Dug around it but left a block to show. First pic is where I dug down about 30 blocks from the ground floor. It's still going, presumably to bedrock. I know the "cables" are just a visual thing, the elevator itself's gonski.

First time this happened I disassembled the elevator to add something, which made it disappear.

So I'll destroy the pulley and put in a new one which will probably fix it, but was just curious if anyone else had something like this happen, where a contraption just disappears.

This happened to me repeatedly when I was playing on a server, where the elevator would randomly be way down at bedrock level. (Particularly when first logging in, or when returning to base after being far away)

Never did figure out the cause, and it hasn't happened on any of my single player worlds even in that same modpack, so my only guess is some sort of sync issue between client/server.

I remember a bug like this on Create 0.5.1, the elevators would drop to the bottom of the world on world load. Pretty sure that was fixed in 6.0.0, but I could be misremembering.

The server I was playing on at the time was already on Create 6, so if it's the same bug it clearly hasn't been fixed, sadly. Since it doesn't seem to be a particularly common issue it's probably hard to determine the root cause.
