BUG At LONGKEEP Can not build here

[Zydoo]

after a little bit of watching others build stuff , i decided to build a base at LONGKEEP right near the starting area, Spent about 6 hurs cleaning up and rebuilding the area , had moved all my resources from the first base to this new one at longkeep, it was a little tricky to get the flame alter to set at longkeep but i found some grass and it stuck there and covered plenty to start.

after about 6 houts of play i decided to restart the game, When i respawned at my flame alter on login I notices something was off , upon looking around .... EVERY THING i had done in long keep was gone.... oddly a few tables i had broken were gone also , saddly i had dismantled everyting at my starter flame alter and that was all still removed.

It is as if LONGKEEP is resetting every ting but a few tables and a butter churn.


im rather miffed since all my chests vanashed my 12hours of play is reset to what i have im my bag and char progress....

upon further investigation , everything i build on the level of the flame alter will stay but if i build on the structure above the flame alter even though its in the build area it will get reverted back to original longkeep on restart.

upon further testing in this location , everything built above the z level of the flame alter gets reverted to normal anything below the Z level will stay, you cant build a flame alter in any location high enough to encompass the upper floors of LongKeep.

it will allow you to build but it will take it all away .

After Further and Further attempts to use the Long Keep area i have found it does not matter what grade your Flame alter is, Half of the upper side "the highest parts" is cut in half by an invisible barrier that will not allow you to build anything.

It would be a really cool area as its right at the start and it looks cool .

Thanks for posting this. I have tried placing an altar at Pike's reach, I liked the location a lot, a peaceful corner in a busy town, surrounded by mist. It seemed more than ideal, but I can't place a flame anywhere. Mind sharing a picture of the location? I am ok if it disappears at other levels, but I agree, we should be allowed to build there, it's a very good spot.

there is a tunnel with 2 rats in it at the bottom level where the rats spawn outside the tunnel is some rubble at the end of the stairs going in to the tunnel , remove the rubble and you will be able to place your alter there and that's about the center of the Loon Keep you will be able to rebuild every thing below the alter once expanded but not much above the alter , once in game ill take a shot so you can see my placement .

this is the placement location after removing some rubble..

this is a view from the top, anything to the right / south if you build in even though it allows you too, it will all revert back to the original area. how ever i didn't try all areas to the north but all was build able and did not revert in my limited testing.

only tested up to a t2 flame alter.

my sus is that it is too close to the start area ?? and the build block has to do with the area you start as a fresh player, but that is just an assumption ...

OMG I wish I had seen this before i started playing... :steamcrying:
Lost over 75,000 blocks placed. And I had planned on "Restoring" the entire keep, so the fact that half of Longkeep (STILL DEVs!!!) is worse than unbuildable...its buildable but not savable, meaning the whole project is a wash...over 350 hrs in!!!!!

Honestly makes me not want to play anymore.

Yeah, it's a big issue it seems.
Read more on this.

Everything from the opening where the rats are - the double doors below - to the top of the tower and to the starting area apparently resets.
It's a shame. Gotta hope it gets changed, because there is some potential. Many find this place cool it seems.
