PS4. Crates on raft keeps dissapearing.

Just curious if I'm not doing it right. I saw people suggest that you don't place a floor and then place crates directly on foundation. I think I have about 6 crates on one block, lying on the side. Not sure if this is the reason, but luckily if I reload they're usually back.

You will be able to fit 7 if it’s one floor piece missing. I think it’s best to fit all 7 as this will stop the crates sliding and more than likely stay in place!

Seems to be happening when the raft is stationary. Originally I thought they fell off and searched the shallows beneath but couldn't find any crates. It usually happens when I start or reload game while raft is anchored. Probably just a glitch

Yeah I’d assume it’s a glitch, is the raft caught on anything as this may cause it to flung off sometimes.

Just so you know, with the boxes in that configuration, never press RT/R2 to push the raft as the boxes will all come out, only ever pull it.

Well thats interesting to know about the push/pull action. Most of the time im dragging the front left or right but not sure if it still counts as pushing. But next time I'll try to just swim backwards while pulling and see if it solves the problem.

Players said to be careful about collision because crates are still technically loose and might fly off. So I just parked it away from shore. I thought that they dissapear because I'm too far from the raft and then they dont render for some reason. But atleast I know reloading seems to fix it. Just annoying to constantly exit and reload. I'm paranoid that I might forget to check and then save and permanently loose them.

If you use the left trigger to push or pull the raft it is fine, it’s when you use the right trigger to “throw” the raft forward which is the problem. That’s true about the coalition. I’ve never had it happen from ramming into something but when it’s resting on rocks it could happen. The distance shouldn’t affect it as everything shouldn’t despair. Yeah that is annoying, I wish I knew the answer
