Leak Finder
Im trying to build a custom mechanical small grid cockpit but i cant seem to get it air tight. There are 2 layers of windows folding down to the "main grid" im already using merge blocks to connect them. But every time i try to use the leak finder it just shows straight upwards through 100% air tight blocks like full light armor or the windows.
I tried to relocate the vent but it just shows straight up from the new location.

I just did a little bit of clean up cuz i was really messy and added the second air Vent for demonstration.

So it turns out i was just an idiot. I didnt merge the right subgrids so i had to redo the mechanism so the proper subgrids merge. Sorry for wasting your time ._.

I just pasted it and noticed they're different grids :P

You cannot merge with a single hinge or rotor because both parts would end up in the same cell on the same grid, needs 2 stacked hinges for example to have the merged grid just be 2 anchor points that the middleman grid connects... and it will be not so rigid, gotta balance masses so that middle grid needs some heavy blocks to act more rigid.

Also if you wanna visually verify merge, ctrl+shift+c will copy only the aimed grid without any other connected grids.
