    Okay so I am creating a map in forge, and I have not finished the map. Along the way I placed a power drainer in a spot so I could see what it looked like, and now I don't want it there, but I cannot delete the power drainer. The settings are normal, and I don't know why I cannot delete it. I have had this problem in the past as well. Can anyone help tell me how to get rid of it, assuming I don't have to start all over forging in Foundry again. Thanks!

    Did you start a new round after you started up the forge game? Sometimes if I don't start a new round I run into this problem.

    Ok I had the same problem before with a needler. Go into custom games and see if its still there. If its still there see if you can pick it up. Because I placed a needler on a map once and you cant delete it on forge but it appears in slayer but you cant pick it up. I guess its a glitch

    start a new round, the game is probably glitchy so it doesnt appear at start when it actually should.

    Was it on top of something? If it is like a drop spawn,, then that may be the problem.

    As mentioned above...

    It's possible that it is spawning in mid air, dropping to the ground and thus you are unable to manipulate it. If this is the case, set the object to instant respawn and wait to grab/delete it in mid air as it falls. If that proves difficult, float a platform just underneath to catch it before quickly grabbing it.

    was it placed on an open box? i encountered the same problem, sometimes when you place a weapon on said open box its almost like it doesnt exist, although you can still see it.

    I Just ran into a similar problem with a hornet. When i start up forge it's there and i can't move it, but after i restart the round it never spawns. The settings are 180 sec re spawn, spawn at start NO. any thoughts?
    --bos45redsox if i figure anything out I'll post it.

    I figured out the problem. It was a drop spawn where I had a weapon holder in mid air. But I deleted the weapon holder and then it kept falling and I couldn't delete it. But I restarted the round, deployed it, and waited for it to respawn in mid air, then I deleted it. Thanks for helping me out!

    Glad to see this was resolved. Sometimes I make the same mistake. Drop spawning something. I am in too big of a rush and I hate when I do that.

    Could a mod please lock this?
