I can't place a miner on a node

[Not Your Father]

Hello, I cannot place a miner on a Iron node, it keeps saying invalid placement? I restarted multiple times and it is not working.

There's probably a large deposit on top of it. Walk up and hold E until it breaks.

The daily thread.

I love how the devs almost always Move these to the Bug & Tech forum. lol

If it's a daily thread, they need to make it clearer in game.

The giant rock sitting on top isn't clear enough that something might be in the way?

If it's a daily thread, we need to improve our education system.

What? I know I had to remove the rock on the node even without someone telling me that. I don't think we need to add neon signs to the game above these rocks on a node that tell "remove THIS to place a miner".

Of course you knew that, the Onboarding tutorial literally says: "Ensure the resource node is clear of clutter before placing a MK.1 Miner."

might have to much concrete build on the node. think 3 Meters is tops.

I've noticed that depending on the angle of the ground you cant place them. just rotate miner until you can place it..

You can place them in any direction, there are no restrictions.
Except for the increment of one tick on the scroll wheel.

If it says you need to place this on a resource node remove some foundatations or aim on the ground next to the foundations.
