Hey, @recentlyafish.

Signal logic has always been buggy in multiplayer. Sometimes a full game restart helps. Otherwise, there’s not much which can be done unfortunately.

I will try that then. I just found out the motion sensor for the ramps won’t work wither now. fingers crossed

[recentlyafish]

Signals were turned off. I sure as heck didn’t do that but somehow signals were off.
problem solved

For the future, if you have problems with signals and ledscreens etc, a CSW often fixes the issues

Ps: see now that signals was off

there is a bug for few years now that shows signals as ON in the P menu, but they are turned off in reality…toggling the main sensor switch 1-2 times mostly doesn’t help either, toggling it, then reopening P menu, toggling it again, P menu, toggling…you get the picture…i do it mostly 5-6 times before i am half way sure it should work
