Need More Information

VS2.3, LCD Narrow 0.5m, Creative, placing blocks in F8 camera mode.

Tower shaped airship, 16x 2.5m truss block in height. Truss block at the top (i.e. furtherest from ground is named "Deck 1" and LCD Narrow display text "Deck 1" as well. Truss block at the bottom (closest to ground) "Deck 16" and LCD Narrow display text "Deck 16".

Was placing from LCD Deck 1 until Deck 16, naming each LCD in sequence and checked display was correct before placing next LCD. After placing LCD Deck 16 and return to Deck 1, LCD Deck 1 is showing "Deck 16", which is incorrect.

Hello Nice Fu,


Could you please provide your affected Save Game? You can publish it on Steam Workshop and attach a link to it here.


Kind Regards,

Hello, world published. Link https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3773974098

The world is saved and published the moment I observed the LCD with text "Deck 0" not displaying the text (workshop thumbnail). Other LCDs are on "lower floors" near the staircases, represented by each 2.5m truss block "down" the airship towards H2 thrusters. This LCD was displaying correctly when I first loaded into this world.

Same issue, since the report linked below, I noted that it was not just screens being automatically changed that were affected. Any LCD in the same save can start displaying any other LCD text.


To replicate it just place several LCD with text set on them and spend some time in the save.

I have managed to capture this issue in a video with a simpler setup.


There are several screens with static text set. Flying around for some time and then coming back to the screens and the text has changed around the screens.


I did require to be in the save for around 5-10 minutes and on flying away and coming back one time the issue showed itself.

I have seen this too, though I don't yet have a simple repeatable mechanism for finding this issue.

In my case, I has set up LCD screens where the text changed based on an event controller. In particular, I set up an LCD screen that said either "Ion Thrusters online" or "Ion Thrusters offline" based on the event controller detecting the enabled state of the ion thrusters. I set up a second LCD screen for the hydrogen thrusters. Testing out the operation of this from my cockpit, quickly switching ion thrusters and hydrogen thrusters on and off from the cockpit hotbar, the LCD screens on my cockpit suddenly changed to match the external LCD screens for no reason. When I exited the game and re-loaded, the cockpit LCD screens returned to normal, and I never saw these symptoms again.
