Cannot be placed on construction (PrefabPreProcess - Client/mining.pumpjack/sockets/survey_crater_oil/sphere_test (6))

Soooo, any ideas? I throw a survey charge and get the oil crater shown on the ground. Then my PumpJack sticks to the crater fine. But it's always red and not sure if the terrain is the issue, the plugin is broken or the game just rejects to place PumpJack at all. Like Facepunch does all the time... If we do not want something instead of removing it completely, we just break the functionality and keep it in-game.

Even when first introduced they were always a pain to place, even when there was no (seemingly) logical reason for the quarry/pumjack not to fit it would not no matter the rotation, Now that they are mostly unused (as rendering oil from animals is plentiful) i suppose FP is not too concerned with placement anymore.
Another "problem" of course is that it is another building you have to protect and with the reduction in health (a few years back) of the High external walls and the non appearance of the hq upgrade to them it makes the pumpjack expensive to protect .
Hope you get it resolved

it seems that the problem is only in regard to the Pumpjack as the Mining  quarry will lock onto the survey hole,

although it might be possible with this plugin (although i have not tried it)

Whether a player can deploy a pumpjack is determined by Facepunch and has nothing to do with the plugin.
You need to find a nice angle to place the pumpjack.
