Unable to place Defensive wall spikes
So ive searched the bug reports and everywhere else and cant find a thing about this. Im unable to place defensive wall spikes, the rock ones wtih the thin spikes jutting out. Ive tried on all the different types of walls and on the ground. Ive checked youtube also. Is there a trick to placing them or is this a bug. Im hosting my own coop server.

You can only place them at the base of the defensive wall. The logs with the sharp pointy tops....

EDIT: Believe you have to build/complete the section(s) of defensive wall before the spike's blueprint will snap in to place

The only wall that defensive spikes attach to is the defensive walls on the traps tab... the logs with the sharp points. Remember to use them on the outside.

I got the same problem. The defensive spikes will attach to the defensive walls by being transparent. but i can't do anything afterwards. All i can do is press B and it will cancel. It doesnt want me to finish it or even extend it.

I'm having this problem too, did you ever find a fix to it?

Make sure you complete the wall first

Make sure you complete the wall first

The wall was finished, tried in multiple places and it still doesn't work

Place what you want to build and if it does not allow you to build it, then use commands:

Use the console commands to finish the ghost buildings. Search for it on TheForest wiki if want to know more about it.
