I am ATTEMPTING to build a starship.  I have gathered the necessary resources and started to lay down blueprints for the parts.
Any time I try to put in a cryosleep casket--AFTER I put in a structural beam--I get the message "Must be placed with head attached to ship structural beam."  This message comes up no matter how I orient the casket or the structural beam.
What am I doing wrong?

When you try to place the casket do you sea the next to the casket ?
This is the interaction spot of it, and mark the head of the casket too.
Basicly there is only 1 position to place the casket, the other 3 rotation give the message.

Are you placing them next to a beam, or next to the ghost blueprint of a future beam?

The beam needs to be actually present before you place a casket.

Yes I find it annoying too.

I never got how pawns in the game could have such insanely bad reactions to such mundane things.
Then I came to the forums.
