M18 Hellcat Engine Pin
Im having some issues replacing a piston pin on the Hellcat engine which is making it impossible to finish engine assembly. Ive zoomed in, used "I" to hide everything, been right on top of the outlined part location and the ability to install just does not come up.

Must be turn 90 degree insert near the edge.

Same here, M18 engine assembly seems to be broken at the moment. Was working on the first M18 I restored, but now I can´t finish any more engines. The shown parts are stuck and can´t be disassembled. The pins connecting the A-rods with the b-rod can´t be installed or removed. The "southern" pistons can´t be interacted with.

Yes, it should be fixed in the recent update but something went wrong. Sorry, we will try one more time!

Was finally able to fix my engine. :)

You need to be inside the part you want to install with your camera. That is a lot of moving around with the camera. I hope that will be fixed soon. :)

Right. I have completed my first M18 Hellcat and put into Museum last night.
Few of component need working from unexpected direction to do so.

Yeah I managed that one as well after a LOT of trying. Still haven't managed to attach Crankshaft B though, so it remains unfinished in my warehouse.

Edit: Also, the image for the tank when I'm moving it is a Tiger I for some reason. Might be something for the devs to look at.

Yeah, had a few issues with those piston pins too, and same as Tankred, I am stuck in Crankshaft B. Just cannot install it. Even if I select it through the P menu so it selects the art for me, still cannot get the install prompt anywhere, and Ive tried pretty much every angle and zoom level possible. Engine is stuck until I can get this done.

The M18s engine seems to be a pretty big mess, how did this get past testing?? Was it even tested ingame before being pushed out?
