I am making a Saturn v, I test the landing legs, and the piston just disconnects and breaks the leg. I don’t care if it requires tinker panel, just please tell me how I can stop this.

    That would take to long @SamTheFox.

    my other idea is to rebuild the entire system

    Why though @SamTheFox, they disconnect even when no throttle is applied.

    @SamTheFox They already don’t. Any more ideas?

    we'll start with making the pistons not intersect anything

    @SamTheFox what do you recommend doing then?

    the reason why they disconnect is either too much acceleration applied by the engine, or it's because the piston and hinge are intersecting the leg

    this requires the tinker panel:
    set the part collisions and collision response to none and never, it should allow them to be indestructible from external forces
