Motor Hoist has no bolts?
I installed experimental update this morning and started a new save

i was going to attach the engine to motor hoist like everyday, but there was no bolts on motor hoist..

is there any solution? or what could happen if i turn back to original version, attach it and turn back to experimental update?

Thanks.

There is some odd behaviour around it though. With the engine still bolted into the car I was able to lower the hoist into place until I heard the click, then lift the entire front end of the car by its engine without bolting the hoist.

I tried this with the engine out of the car - again heard the click and tried to lift the engine without bolting the hoist. This time the hoist arm raised but the beam just stretched, leaving the engine sat on the floor:

the bolts should appear when the hoist is near the block iirc.

what can i say? this was a pretty helpfull comment

i already insalled old version, mounted the engine and installed experimental one again.. so this problem is probably solved

i finished building my car today but now when i start my car and gas it at 1, it stalls.. thats my only problem right now

thanks!

How did you get the rope on the hoist to lower?
