Magnetic Plate on Piston no longer sturdy, wobbles around [Video]

Investigating

I've had this mechanism for years to lock this exact buggy to the inside of a large ship, it has worked for years

Usually it is two pistons next to one another with two mag plates on the ends of each, but with the newest update, the mag plates lock onto each other... and so while trying to figure out what is going on I've removed one and found it to not work at all, mag plate on piston does not hold the buggy still at all.

I've recorded a video of this behavior.

Hello Engineer,

Thank you for reaching our forum with this problem.

Can you please provide us the save file, where the affected grids are already in place, so we can investigate it further on our side in the exactly same environment?

You can access your save files by typing %appdata% into your Windows search bar and you will be redirected to the hidden Roaming folder. After that just follow: \Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Saves. There should be a folder with your SteamID and your saves.

Please zip the file and attach it here. If you are having difficulty attaching files you can optionally use Google Drive. When sharing a google drive link please make sure it is set to be downloadable by anyone with the link.

Thank you in advance.

Kind Regards,

Keen Software House: QA Department

Something has changed since last I run the game, guessing a micro update has changed something again, the buggy no longer wobbles around like what is shown in the video above, although mag plates positioned directly beside each other do seem to still be locking onto one another.

I've included the save regardless so you can have a look, buggy is at the front of a large grid ship named Infinity.

Buggy lock controls are basically 7 and 8 / reverses piston / lock mag plate.
