Foundation under the terrain

[jagged trellis]

There is a foundation under the terrain, and i have no clue how to remove it. any assistance would be appreciated

[obsidian pulsar]

private server or public?

if its private you could move it up in build mode

if its public ask an admin to move it for you

[jagged trellis]

pub, but admin said when they disabled cheats it wiped inventorys so they wont re enable it as it may wipe again

[obsidian pulsar]

Bruh admins are stupid

Enabling cheats doesnt wipe anything

[winter grail]

Just move your entire base slightly if the admins are too dumb to deal with it

[jagged trellis]

disabling them did

[obsidian pulsar]

Its just changing 1 line in a text file

[winter grail]

It doesnt clear anything

Just enables/disables certain vanilla commands

[jagged trellis]

yeah from what i heard it wiped players inventories

[obsidian pulsar]

It does not.

Step by step: shut down the server

Open commands.dat
Write "cheats enable"

Save

Start server

Was there a pine floor nearby that you moved later on with the admin edit tool?

Because structures are actually linked logic wise now, and those connections are still preserved when you move them.

[jagged trellis]

No, just rebuilt my base with the intersecting bit like 30 degrees to the right

[meager lark]

Actually, @winter grail You know anything about this?
Because it seems like the admin edit tool causes problems with the new structure system.

[jagged trellis]

And that was no edit tools

Vanilla

Place a floor on a slope, then place another inside the slope

Using the house planner

Then you make a floor you can never remove

[meager lark]

Ah.

[jagged trellis]

Yeah. It's a server and I have no access to that stuff

[meager lark]

Did you try adding the floor from the other side?

sometimes adding it from a different position works.

[jagged trellis]

Issue is there is a floor under the map

I needed to place one high up

[meager lark]

Then your only option there is to enable the admin edit tool and remove it.

[jagged trellis]

But it detected the floor underground on the z cord

[jagged trellis]

Yeah ik. Which is why I did this

Mild oversight by Nelson, I'm surprised there isn't a check to make sure a raycast can reach the sky/player from the position it would be placed, and if it can't and there would be no way to pick it up after a few checks you wouldn't be able to place it snapped to the other floor

Racist lmao

Thanks autocorrect

Always work when I don't need ya and every time I do you dont

[winter grail]

what?

[jagged trellis]

Speaking of, would that be worth a bug report?

[jagged trellis]

The fact that there aren't checks for this? Or at least we'll flushed out ones

[meager lark]

Well, with Nelson's new system the structures are actually linked together, so each piece knows who their 'partners' are.

Are those 'parterships' deleted when a structure is admin edited?

I'm not sure how much of that system was actually implemented, nor how much the game relies on it, but I do know it was added at some point.

[jagged trellis]

That doesn't make sense to this original issue, at least with my knowledge

[winter grail]

hmmm

If you are sure there is an issue which is replicable i guess you could make a report

[obsidian pulsar]

just ask nelson

[meager lark]

It is easily replicable.

For example, I made a hotel thingy the other day.
Moved a couple of floors, etc, and some slots to place things were still there strangely enough.

[winter grail]

post it on github then

try and look at the code as well perhaps

find the issue

[meager lark]

Doing that at the current moment, really disliking the workzone code, but eh.

It seems like it transforms the structure and that is it.

But then again StructureManager.housingConnections.UnlinkConnections(this);
StructureDrop.cs#L95

[obsidian pulsar]

in conclusion?

[meager lark]

The admin editor tool does probably take into account the housing connections due to it unlinking them when transforming them by default.
