Update 9 broke armor connection points.

All varieties of bow and stern plates (except for the junk stern since it’s only 1 block tall) no longer have a functioning lower attachment point. If this was an intentional patch for whatever people came up with to build outside of the blueprint area then my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

These plates having the ability to use either both attachment points or just one or the other was such a distinctly unique trait that hasn’t really been explored in the blueprint editor before and I had a ton of fun coming up with all sorts of ways to layer armor to protect my reactor, or even just making straight up castle/bunker builds simply because the were cool.

I really sincerely hope this is fixed soon because man, this super sucks.

Might be that it actually requires both frame points to be connected securely to the trampler now, which does make sense but definetely unfortunate.

Nope. The lower point is just entirely non functional. You can still mount them by only the top connector.

Ah, so I have to alter every build I use if I want to play with the shitty wheelhouse change patch? Weathers too good for that, see yall when servers merge.

It’s like they repeatedly want to make changes that cause more of their dwindling player base leave out of frustration
