blocks falling away

[Tilaras]

Has anyone else had the problem of random rebar brick sets falling away for no reason, even after they are just placed?? we really need a patch to fix this!!

[Lenkdrache]

If you are building beyond their structural integrity, they will always fall.... you need supports fairly close together

[TUGs | The Unprofessional Gamer]

is there something digged underneath your base? if its the case and the area it affects structural integrity directly, as well as the thing that Lenkdrache mentioned!

[Tilaras]

no, it isnt either of those, my blocks are right off the wall and fall for no reason, and everytime i rebuild they fall, no matter what.

[BurntBacon]

i dont think you can build with them like that, you need to go from the ground up if im understanding right.

Each material works differently in the game, until we can rule out this isn't human error we have to assume there is a chance of it

[Tilaras]

it works inside the building i am making, i am able to build a second floor not a problem, and the rest of the sides i am able to go 2 blocks out from the wall no problem, its only on the one side, always fails in that purticular spot. everytime all the time.
not to mention it isnt just me that has experienced this. i have a friend playing on the server trying to build his own set of structures and they fail in almost the exact same way.
others on our server have also been experiencing it as well, including our server admin/owner and we know its an issue that happens on other servers as we have tried it.

Sometimes the game glitches and blocks fall for no reason.

In a server a friend started part of the building was missing and the "roof" was still there.... only about 10 blocks higher then the grounded part of the building... floating in mid air being held up by nothing.

I destroyed it by making wood frames up to it and then taking the wood frame away... I guess the server recalculated the roof part and then found that the roof was unsupported... and made it fall apart.

Was intresting seeing a floating roof about 20 boxes in the air... but started to annoy me so I took it down.

I am having the same problem on 2 MP games and one SP game. I am building the usual 4 block high wall with a lip running around the outside. The lip blocks keep falling off for no reason??? Just started with the 9.3X fix.

*sigh* how many ppl need to say its a glitch/bug before you understand that its a glitch/bug?

There are tons of them in the game because it is in alpha...

I got tired of having to restart every 3 weeks so I personally stopped playing as I got tired of putting 20+ hours in building a base and stockpile... only to lose everything because of some hotfix or patch.

If you want to play a game with little to no bugs then wait for it to be finished.

falling block
Some blocks are falling without reason, even having a pillar to sustain a block beside they fall, and not just rebar, concrete, wood any kind; I have a serious problem of this nature;

Your problem is characteristic of having some kind of cave system under your own base. In order for blocks to be stable, their main support pillars need to be solid from bedrock up. If you have a cave under the support, whether it be a natural cave or man made one, you will have SI problems because that support is no longer completely solid from bottom to top.

Your solutions are to try to pinpoint where that support block is and go down into the cave to try to reinforce it and make that support column whole or you have to double up your floors with two layers instead of one.

The structure integrity is still bugged. That says it all. Waiting for A13 or A14 or..

I do not have any of that. Are wrong. Sorry...

[Dead-Wolf]

The only way you could know that is if you dug all the way down to bed rock.

Although I do remember digging down and falling before and I know that was a bug.

I Also remember before thry introduced caves that sometimes things would fall for no reason.

It is prob a bug... no biggie as its stll in Alpha.
