Base bugged after patch

I was having the same problem with my Teleporter room. I removed a beacon and was planning on installing a new one, and pow! I'm getting red everywhere when I tried to place the new one in. This Reasonable place goobled [censored].

I was reading and saw that it could be a problem with the dimensional portal being in a blockable place..so instead wasting time moving it, I flat out deleted the portal...thinking this would solve the problem.

It didn't.

Even without a dimensional portal, I can't move or place anything in that room. Beacons..heck I can't even place a chair!

I don't know if the problem extends to the other rooms, but I was adding decorative items in my vault just fine.

Grumble....I hope I figure out what's going on here.

Hey guys.

As many of you figured out, the base cause of this was some fixes to base raidable checks. Previously, items on walls were not properly blocking off space. Now, any item on a wall will count as obstructing the entire column of space it occupies, to prevent inaccessible rooms.

We didn't intend for this to delete doors between rooms, or make a base uneditable. Those are bugs.

If you have a problem where you can't edit your base, you should remove any wall items, or move them to out of the way places. This is especially true for anchors. Then, have everyone leave the base for about 5 minutes so it will restart. When you come back in, you SHOULD be able to edit your base again.

If this doesn't solve your problem, please /petition it and a GM will be able to come help you. Also, if what I said above doesn't work, feel free to post in this thread and explain your situation, so I can check up on it.

It's still not consistent with what you can place where. Once I recreated by "doorways' and placed items back, there were a few that wouldn't got (the small round light), I placed these bewteen stairs for added "lighting effect". Now I can't place them in about 3-4 spots while all the other work..rubbish.

They should have changed the depth of the Anchors "footprint" to prevent you from placing anything too close in front of them, too late for that now.

Can't even make a good maze now, buh!

bah! i'll give u base bug.

when moving rooms around to better accomomdate members, my entrance somehow deleted itself. just vanished.

i put it back in place, but it didn't connect to either room on either side of it. so, what was there was an open doorway, but no connecting hall between the 2. so, what i had was an entrance, 2 doorframes on either side. a gap (on either side) and the 2 frames leading to either half of my base on either side.

the "gap" was now allowing everyone who entered my base access into base limbo. the matrix grid was there. and if u tried walking off at a certain point, u fell. 1000s and 1000s of digital feet until u finally hit and lost all of ur life but 1 hp. i looked up, and my base was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay above me. pretty much a dot.

i used my squid form to fly back up to the base, filed a petition, and set in limbo doing yoga contemplating my near death experience. =P

i never got a reply. of course they sent me an email saying they looked for me but found me offline. i was still waiting in the base, lol.

i ended up trying several things before fixing the problem myself. but it was pretty weird for a couple of days. our sg was having pow wows in Digital Limbo. =)

Thanks for the update Zig. I had an issue, and it was resolved by two great in-game GMs. More info can be found here.

If they are general base items, you have to delete tham and re-place them after you get things to work.

If they're crafted items, I would petition for a GM, who can help you out more. They were very helpful in my situation.

How do you do that if you can't edit your base though?

Please be clear. Do you not have permission to edit your base, or is there something wrong with your permissions? Or is it just a matter of not being able to place base items once you're in editing mode?

You need to be specific about the problem which you encounter in the whole "editing" process.

As Obsidious said, if it's a normal base item, like an anchor, that's causing the problem, you should be able to select the item and Sell it to fix your base.

If it is not a normal item, like a crafted item, /petition and the GMs can work through it.

Would it possible to see this collision box as well as the 2hit box when we highlight the item? This really makes Monitor banks really huge now lol!
