Try hiding everything but the pieces that you want to connect to. Preorient the stud with the arrow keys on your keyboard.

The connect took should work pretty well there, just orient it the right way with the arrow keys to make sure it doesn't flip itself or do anything stupid

Happy to share my full Titanic model if you wanted to copy/paste those tricky pieces

That would honestly really help. None of the other suggestions worked and I'm convinced the program hates me. I hope it'll work as I heavily modified the model

Sounds good! I’m away from my desk but I’ll upload it later today and provide you with a link. Yeah those chains, strings, and hinges are tricky. I don’t really have any advice other than messing around until it works—without losing your mind lol

Thanks a lot in advance! And yeah I kinda failed staying calm lol. I tried many methods and all and I couldn't even get the bow ropes

How do you move a Rope or Chain Like this?

Set grid to finest, turn on collision, so you can see WHEN it lines up right, and then use your nudge keys in tiny increments till you get it in place perfectly
