Bug Description:
Gates will only place on foundation in direct contact with the ground
Bug Reproduction:
- Stack foundations two high
- Attempt to place gate
- Get “CANNOT PLACE WHILE OVERLAPPING ANOTHER OBJECT” or “MISSING SUPPORT UNDERNEATH THE GATE” message
- Appears to be related to Anti-stacking rules for fence foundations
This is not true. I’ve been able to get one gate down randomly but cannot get any others. It’s just completely broken
It looks like the problem has to do with the distance from the ground:
It looks like you don’t have to stack foundations on top of each other to have the bug manifest, it’s enough to simply raise the foundation enough.
I am running into the same problem. I have frontier foundation pieces 5 a across directly touching the ground and it says missing support underneath the gate.
Same issue here. I can’t place any type of gate frame.
It’s look like to the game wants it to place under the foundation and writes that “Cannot place while overlapping another object” - Yes, because it is under the foundation.
If the game let me place it, where I don’t want to place it, I can’t rotate it.
Have the same bug on PC solo + personal server with/without mods :
-Cannot place on foundation or foundation fence
-CAN be place with lower part on GROUND + a part on a Foundation
-CAN be place with lower part on GROUND alone + upper contact with ceiling
So gate are place-able with ground contact only… as per state by other player earlier.
I confirm. Same problem. You can install the gate arch only on a very low foundation, directly at the surface of the earth. If the foundation is higher or has several levels - “Placement is not possible. Intersects with another object.”
Same here on an official Connan Siptah server
Same here, even on one foundation and the rest of it part on the ground… Idk since when its broken…
Confirm from PC player. I have the same issue, no mod on private server. Hope that DEV found this and fix asap.
I used to be able to place gates in lakes so I could add a drawbridge. Now it dosnt work if the foundation is over 1 square high , i hope they fix this mess soon ,
Unfortunately, I also have to confirm this bug. It’s no longer possible for me to place the gates in Conan Exiles like before the last update.
Having the same problem. also if the draw bridges are suppose to snap to theses then they are also useless as you wouldn’t build a drawbridge 2 feet of the ground. and i cant even get the drawbridge to snap to a gate frame can any one else?
I’m havin the same problem please Funcoms do something about this !!
@Community Would it be possible to get a rough ETA on when can we expect this issue to be fixed, please?
I believe it might be of use to everyone currently building a base, if they should just wait a few days, or come up with some temporary mid-term solution instead.
We are still looking into this issue and hope to have a fix for it as soon as possible.
Thank you for your patience and understanding while we investigate.
Thanks. 
My temp solution is three doors and using the double high doorframe, then positioning archers on a walkway above the doors.
