Bad download issue
Wow that looks like my worst nightmare :( So sorry for you guys. I have the atlas update on my server, too, but this hasn't happened.

As I can't reproduce and the comment section isn't full with hundreds of people with the issue, I believe it is really bad luck for you both. I heard about this kind of bad download problems from Ark and Atlas and I know about a few admins that do all their mod updates manual because of such stuff. This really sucks, but I am afraid I can't do anything about it. You would need an extra app, that downloads the mod updates instead of the server, checks the checksums of all files and only after confirming everything downloaded right starting the server again.

@[OCG]Stuccy Did you actually tried to redownload the mod files? I mean completely deleting all mod files on the server and then redownload everything? I am not sure if this can convert back your structures if the game believed the structures didn't exist because of the bad download and then the server did a save, they are probably gone forever. If they only turned some kind of invisible and losing collision, they could be getting fixed. As the windows are still there, there could be a chance the frame is also still there, otherwise, the windows normally should break. But I am not sure, never saw something like this.

What happens, if you try to place down a new window frame somewhere else? Is there the preview? Can you place them? And just in case, could you give me a list of all mods you are running? Just want to make sure it is no mod conflict or something else I could prevent.

Hi so I have tested it you can place everything bar wooden windows and door frames, stone works but wood doesn't. and wood walls work. I have had this issue before on ark if the save world didn't complete before updating the server.

If I reinstall this mod and all others I am afraid it may fix it however no one will want to play anymore due to having to restart their bases all over again and we had to do this a week ago when the other structures modder discontinued his original mod. I lost more then half my player base when that happened. Thankfully its only wooden partial structures affected.

If anything else happens with your mod I'll let you know but the only structures effected is this one.

Hi Stuccy, I probably have some good news for you. I tested a bit more and deleted the StructureBP_SPUK_Wall_Doorway_Wood_Child.uasset file and restarted my server. Voila, the same issue you have, my doorframe is gone, but my doors are still there.

After redownloading my mod, the old doorframes are still gone because I did a save bevor restarting, but I can place new ones you just need to pick up the floating doors and windows.

If you do a redownload right, you shouldn't lose anything. I do this for my beta mod all the time.
There are two ways you can do the redownload:
1. let Atlas redownload everything
2. do a manual install

In both cases you first stop your server and make a backup of your world (just in case you are really unlucky and the download fails again), then you delete the whole mod folder (1634787296), but do not delete the 1634787296.mod file. After this you either
1. start the server back and it should redownload the mod folder
2. copy over the mod folder from your local machine to the server and start the server after

If the download did go right this time, you should be able to place window frames and doorways again.
