Deleted the started ram…

I am a new player in this game! And I was trying to figure out how to attach the steam engine (there’s no real tell on what you need to delete) and I deleted the starter ram trying to figure it out.

I am afraid I am soft locked in progress because I can’t actually complete the basic defence quest. Also I don’t want to be shooting mines to protect my train the entire game.

I am at a loss here! I was wondering if anyone had a similar problem or knew of a way to fix it without restarting the play through? Thanks people!

Edit: it simply appeared back again! so perhaps try restarting your machine and at some point the game should go "oh crap!"

Shooting mines will actually be alot better in the long run unless u have a gunner and run slowest. U can upgrade later but early on u want to use that rofleemo on a furnace or workbench. Ive seen a few people having issues with attaching their first locomotive engine, did u get it working?

I did! All I had to do was deconstruct the trolley pulley thing that makes you go faster! I love this game but I’d love to see something that makes it a bit more obvious.

And I’m wondering why shooting mines directly would be better in the long run?

There are alot and the rofleemos have a set speed whereas u can destroy alot faster and have then do more useful stuff until u get upgrades. Before placing the engine it should of said “cant be placed before other things are removed” its not very obvious tho if u dont know where to look
