Prefab Editor is horrid
Can someone please explain to me what i could be doing wrong?
I've been using the prefab editor for a good few days now and i can't seem to keep my buildings stable. (Even though. They do display stable.) I even watched hours on end for tutorials. Yet. Whatever i do. And import my prefabs into the world. They collapse.

Same with placeble loot. I place them in my buildings. Test them. As soon as i grab the loot. My place caves in. I removed air blocks. And other type of strategies to keep my place 'alive.' But it always ends up with destroying my entire place without any explainations.

I'm to the point of giving up on making builds. The instructions you get are very simplified on how this editor actually really works. And i've seen that many people have other issues.

You have to look at the prefab and click 'Recalc stability' in the debug menu after placing the POI. Perhaps you also have to reload the map.

I did have done those sadly. I am honestly just clueless on what to do. I went to my server, saved a world object (A base example.) And placed it. Left and rejoined after 10 minutes of reloading. Gone.

Its just so confusing.

Perhaps I could make a short video showing how to insert prefabs today or tomorrow (no promise^^). I am really busy but since your problem is an evergreen among the frequently asked question, it would probably be worth taking the time.

Admittedly, I'd watch that.
Since, i honestly wanted to build a certain prefab package that would contain 'quarantine' like builds. Capsules (Those buildings for quarantine) And supply bases, So people have some variety.

I am just taking a break now since, I just really. Really got tired working with this editor. Its just... so badly worked out. Lack of info. Etcetra.
