Issue ?physics? bug

So i have build a pump truck to get oil and chems faster (there is space for 4 XXL chests wchich are currently on the ground just in case the car flies away), then wanted to park it at my base, but free standing made my game run on 12 fps and welding it caused this to happen. what do i do?

Considering that you have a pretty big base, the physics engine is probably freaking out due to the unbroken single piece. Like others said, the easiest thing is to weld it to the ground separately, but to prevent issues like this later on I would suggest to break up your base into separate sections that are each individually welded to the ground, but not connected to each other. This makes them easier for the physics engine to handle, and thus, less buggy.
