adding the "keel main" to the underside of a ship makes it sink for some reason

[killingjoys]

I had a working ship design that floated just fine. Then i added the "keel main" to the underside of the ship to make it look less blocky and look more like a real boat. The problem is this made the ship sink to the bottom of the sea. If the code for the "keel main" is meant to help boat's cut though the water then i think its doing it in the wrong direction.

it wont sink when I add only one main keel block, but if i add 9 along the langth of the ship it will

anyone else have this problem or can replicate it?

yes, the keels are currently very heavy block to help stability on larger ships, we'll implement a 'realer' keel soon, and we're adding some more curved blocks too!

check out my guide. keels are.. well.. not very useful. if you have a 7 block wide 11 block long ship you should put around 3-5 keels just under the middle of the bottom. if its a tall ship it can do good but for a small ''BOAT'' yea you shouldnt put ANY keels. keels are for SHIPS not BOATS.
