Issues placing gate frame

Platform: Xbox Series X
Issue Type: Gameplay
Game Mode: Online Private
Server Type: PvE
Map: Isle of Siptah
Server Name: Lord Quaymar’s Island


Bug Description:

Gate frames will not snap into proper position on foundation pieces and/or fence foundations as they should. I tried resetting the server, rebooting my Xbox and also tried my other server and it’s the same issue. Other players on these servers report the same trouble.


Bug Reproduction:

Use build hammer to place a gate frame on foundation pieces

you too? I can snap a gate in my clan no problem, but if I join a buddy, who’s having gate issues’ clan, I can no longer place a gate. the image stays white & never turns green to snap to anything. I leave his clan & I can then again snap getes & place them normally. This is one of the 5 things broken in the 1 thing fixed, 5 things broken protocol. They nuked my topic on the repeated blackscreening pockets on my server. Good luck friend!

I’m not in a clan though

All but one of my clan members trying to place a gate since the update are having this same problem. The error that is seen is there is no support for the frame yet they are placing it on a foundation piece. You can see from the outline that the Gate Frame is sinking into the frame rather than sitting on top of it. Trying to raise it is not sufficient.

Will have to try on Playstation tomorrow those gates have always been a pain.

Gates don’t snap … On Xbox and I’ve been fighting with it forever tonight … I’ve built well over a thousand hours and have never had this type of issue.

It’■■■■■ and miss but it seems that 90% of the time you can’t place it …. Will do more testing but it’s seriously glitched

So in reading other post and doing some testing the issue is if the foundation is even a little too high you can’t snap gates to them. You have to have the foundations OR ceiling pieces like a quarter inch off the ground then the gate frames will set down correctly ….

So whatever you do DONT remove existing gate frames that are even a fraction above that.

Who knows when this bug will be patched……

Did you test before writing? Nothing works

I’ve replied to the same question multiple times, but i will check.

Yes it’s broken. Just tried with every building set, including the new Stormglass double door, can place to the right or left of the foundations on the ground but not on the foundations.

It was working before the last update as some folk asked me to build an outpost for them which had a front and back gate.

We are having the same issues on 2 servers. Gate frames will not snap in the proper place on foundation pieces, with or without fence foundations added. I rebooted both servers and my Xbox and the other players on each server tried to build a gate and still could not.
