Engine controls not working

[MikeOxbig]

so i setup two engines on my raft that work fine and a steering wheel which works fine too. I then place a Engine control next to my steering wheel but it doesnt seem to do anything. It gets annoying having to run to each each engine to shut it off/turn it on or chance direction every time. How do i get this to work?

Have you read the instructions on it?


- 'max 100 supports per engine' else it will show a block/slow animation and does not work, this animation is also shown if you didn't lift your anchor, or when you have multiple in different directions
- 'insert wood/biofuel hole' without any fuel stuff doesn't work. its not magic

you could also Google it, and read up on the subject on the Wiki, I'm pretty sure this would solve your answer, but if not you really should share more details about the problem. This is not enough to anyone to help you further

One level reverses direction, the other turns them on/off. The control has worked fine for me. I only wish it had a control for the anchor as well.

Thanks it just started working all of a sudden lol. I agree though it would be nice if you could control the anchor with it as well.

Yeah, I have to run down 3 levels to drop anchor every time lol.

I just installed a zipline to make the trip from the wheel house to the anchor faster. :)

I am having the same problem You said that it randomly started working, any idea what changed? I am in a multi-player world if that changes anything

- Make sure all engines are in the same direction.
- All anchors are up
- No rock or terrain is colliding with ur raft's foundations.
- Engines have enough fuel

If you have done everything right and your raft still isn't moving, restart the game.
That's all it takes to resolve this common bug.
Or at least this is what happened with mine.
