Cant build a roof after patch
No matter what I try, it isnt possible to build a roof/ramp/stairs anymore. Does anyone else have these problems.

I tried a new game but it isnt working. I loaded my old game and removed all planks from the existing roof but couldnt place them back...oO

I found a way to build:
1. Place the roof (the frame)
2. save the game
3. exit the game
4. load the last save
5. place your planks

...but why? :(
me too, im glad i'm not the only one.
the only fix i found is to save and leave the game then reload that saved game.
it will temporarily let you build a ramp/stairs again and then something will trigger it again.

this needs a serious hotfix, because it's game breakingly annoying.

Same for me ! Restart works for some of the structures but not all.

What solved the problem for me:
1. disable cloud sync for sons of the forest
2. navigate to %username%\AppData\LocalLow\Endnight\
3. rename(for backup) the "SonsOfTheForest" Folder into e.g. "_SonsOfTheForest"
4. enable cloud sync
5. start the game

now i can build as before the patch

And the same procedure without Point 4. ?

The game will create a completely new profile. Maybe this solves the problem

If you do not re-enable cloud sync, your saved games will not show up.

i know, but if this solves the problem you know that something is wrong with your profile.

I'm *suddenly* having this same problem myself.. This is game breaking and frustrating. I accept this is "early access", but come on...!

i just starting having this issue a few days ago. seems the problem is ongoing. super frustrating. nothing works for me.

**edit. so just after i posted this, i did something in-game that fixed this, and its been fine for the last hour so far. so a ramp or staircase requires two logs (plus others, but theyre irrelvant here, we all kno how the base ramp works) to be at 45 degrees, i took an additional log and propped one of my 45's to be a 90 degree, and then removed them all, added back my 45, and now everything works totally fine.
