Like the mod but am experiencing difficulties.

Used many different types, but each type after a time will either cause me to die and then be unable to respawn (connectors) or drop me through the terrain Pistons & Swivels.

Mostly played in Campaign Mode, seldom use more than one or two of each (and mostly a single function (not linking many together), when not used (off) I don't recall having any issues, but as soon as there are turned on I start having issues.

Oddly spent around five hours in a creative save tonight with multiple pistons/swivels (on same tech & interconnected) with no issues at all. I have updated several mods since the initial issues I had I'll have to play around in Campaign and see if that's the issue. :/

@WhitePaw2002, Here is the save file I mentioned. I could not attach it in a conversation or profile post.
So yeah, the spider seems to be slipping in place.

How to use:
W / Toggle - Move forward
S / Toggle - Move backward
A and D / Hold - Turn (Cant because it won't move)

i - Move back cannon up
J - Move back cannon left
K - Move back cannon down
L - Move back cannon right

Up Arrow - Move front cannon up
Down Arrow - Move front cannon down
Left Arrow - Move front cannon left
Right Arrow - Move front cannon right

These AA guns also have Target Aim mode on.

Uses control blocks, obviously.

Hello,

Do the swivels have any support in using multiple key bindings for clockwise and counter clockwise rotations?
Example: CW: alpha 1, alpha 2 CCW: alpha 3, alpha 4

If you right click on a swivel it brings up a menu to customize everything you could ever want, key binds, different commands for how you press a button, and you can even make swivels act as weapons that can aim at enemies

Does anyone know if there are plans to update the mod and make it work again? Had a look at the Trello, but I can't seem to find anything.
