[Bug] Ship Designer Bug Parts not saving properly?

Posted on Thursday, June 11, 2015

Hi there

(First time caller, long time listener!)

I'm having difficulty saving parts from the ship designer.  Sometimes only a part of the component saves.

For example:

I crack open the Terran transporter template and grab the central little cross thing (made of Terran Model 23 and 26) using CTRL LMB from the component list, adding parts left-to-right. I then hit the little save-grouped-parts button, and it appears in the Parts menu - although I usually get the blank-thumbnail bug too.

But anyway, thumbnail aside, when I click on the new part it only shows Terran Model 26, and the 4-mirrored Terran Model 23 little arm things in the shape of a cross are missing.

This happens pretty much everywhere, whether grabbing a group of components from an existing design, or building a ship from scratch. Some "bits" will always be missing from the saved component.

From what I can see I'm following the types of steps that for example Gauntlet uses in his Race Mod YouTube tutorials, but I can never get them to work.

Is this a bug or a Class I Operator Error?
