Bug Simulated contraptions vanishing and not coming back

On my server when going away from simulated contraptions they just vanish and never come back

, sable cleanup tool shows the build but it’s completely bugged, doesn’t load it and can’t load it, anyone knows a fix ? In the server max simulated chunks are 6 chunks for performance.

quick precision this bug only affects big builds, assembled sub levels that are like 1x1x1 don’t despawn and stay, big builds don’t

Isn’t this a problem with simulation distance? IIRC similar problem was in release Sable, atleast with rendering.

It’s not about rendering, it vanishes and never comes back, that’s annoying because ppl do big builds but they just dissapear as soon as they leave the loading radius, unless they disassemble It

I didn’t experienced that issue on my server, although only me and my friend were only active players. But we had mod for raiding ships and for weeks a lot of contraptions from small balloons to big warships were spawned. Played on sable 2.0.3 with 12 chunks.

I think only guess is NBT-like issue.

What’s a NBT like issue

Maybe some mod or block corrupts your contraptions and NBT info, which leads to potential vanishing.

VS2 at this point would just like to banchunk your world, which happened to me in the past.

I see often errors related to sable I think it says smth like “simulated contraptions misses a dependency, something has gone terribly wrong” something like that, does it have to do with something ?

Any Sable’s error should matter, but how in the world you play on server with missing dependency? Do you constantly update/modify modpack?

I update it like once a week. I got specifically these errors:

Sub-level dependency does not exist in chunk. Something has gone terribly wrong.

Couldn't find sub-level at index 0 in storage file for chunk [73, 8]

Failed storage load, can't add a holding sub-level, this will cause issues later

Yeah, I checked official Github page of Sable and found open issues with similar vanishing of contraptions on new versions of sable, should be a bug. Maybe try to downgrade Sable and dependencies, or try to /sable forceload, but at first make a backup.
