help Zip Line cant build line?

[Delayed_Revelations]

created two wall anchors... but when i hover over them, the prompt to build a line is not coming up?

A wall anchor is an endpoint only, you can't start the zip line from them.

i see thanks for that.. thats too bad.. the giant monstrosity that is the alternative is a complete eyesaw and makes my base look like a playground

I agree with you there, I understand why they were designed and built the way that they are. But in practical use there is no real way of getting them to look good. Something more streamlined would definitely be preferable.

maybe you d like them to be machined in a factory? maybe you're playing a game where everything is make-shift to work best it can hence the look .

True, however the mechanics behind a zip line is just a taught wire connected via two fixed points, one with greater elevation than the other. In my mind, if the wall mount is sufficient enough at the end, then it would be sufficient at the start too.
