The recent updates to Lethal Company have introduced a frustrating issue for many players: the inability to properly interact with certain ship items. This problem, affecting everything from weapon placement to essential navigation tools, has significantly impacted gameplay and overall enjoyment. This article will address the known issues, outline potential fixes, and provide information on where to find further support.

Understanding the Problem

The core issue stems from a coding conflict introduced within the game's latest patch. This conflict appears to interfere with the game's object recognition system, preventing players from selecting, equipping, or properly utilizing various ship items. The frequency and specific items affected appear to vary depending on platform (PC, console) and even individual game saves. Reports suggest the problem manifests in several ways:

• Inability to select items: Players are unable to highlight or choose specific items within their ship's inventory, making modification and repair impossible.
• Ghost items: Items appear visually, but don't register in the game's interface, rendering them unusable.
• Incorrect placement: Items are placed incorrectly, leading to malfunctions or inability to use ship systems.

Troubleshooting Steps

While a full patch is being developed by the Lethal Company team, there are several troubleshooting steps players can try to resolve the issue:

1. Verify Game Files: This critical step checks the integrity of your installed game files. Any corrupted or missing files could be contributing to the problem. Your game's platform (Steam, Epic Games Store, etc.) will have an option to verify game files; consult your platform's support documentation for specific instructions.

2. Restart Game & System: A simple restart can resolve temporary glitches or memory conflicts. Restarting both your game and your computer or console may be necessary.

3. Reinstall the Game: This is a more drastic measure, but sometimes necessary. Before reinstalling, back up your save files if possible. A clean installation can often resolve underlying file conflicts.

4. Contact Support: If the problem persists after trying these troubleshooting steps, contacting Lethal Company's official support channels is the next step. Providing detailed information about your specific issue, platform, and any error messages received will help their support team diagnose the problem efficiently.

Preventing Future Issues

While waiting for a complete fix, here are some proactive measures to help prevent similar issues from arising:

• Keep your game updated: Ensure your game is updated to the latest patch (once released). Updates often include bug fixes that address these types of problems.
• Regularly back up your save files: This precaution helps protect your progress in case of future issues or corruption.
