Hey everyone.. enjoying this wonderful game and my son absolutely enjoys as it's pushing his ever desire to build in mathematics and such..( thanks devs for making something that keeps his interest) anyways we're building something on his profile and we're both stumped on how to connect 3 parts to make a handrail or a frame (like on go cart or dunebuggy roll bars).. how or what can we do to connect all 3 support rods ( forget the part name) so that they all join together because when we place it on a launch site they all fall to the ground lol...thanks..I'm sure some of you pros know the basic solution? Not sure if I can post the pic here? I don't see the option..anyways they look like metal chrome handrailings like on a boat and it's surrounded the top part of his Rover he's building..ty

@Insanity I found out through trial and error unless it's a movable functional part you can't connect 3 ends if you have them laid out however you can lead with one part and branch off that until all your ends are connected..I've searched everywhere and found no actually already made things here that had such design ..( very fine craft rocket scientist artist here by far but their way of leading with a direction in their builds seems to be maticualous ( excuse spelling ) with each their beautiful builds and function 🤭😁 I also talked to someone that uses PC version and they have a lot more function in fabrication..still way happy..trying to post some builds now..

@Insanity nope..there isn't that connection icon to preset on a strut ,fuel tank or blast sheild that we've used to fabricate and shape we need to create a handrail and it's couplings ? I'm sure I'll figure it out .thanks for your help anyways 😉🤘

@Insanity oh wait .we didn't even try that hahaha..I remember seeing that ...before I go changing stuff. Is there a specific "key word " I need to set it on in order to ensure all points join regardless if it's not completely a symetrical.

We figured out how to use all the tool edit options as far as resize reshape paint taking every part on the entire list to fit or make into something completely different.. however we can not find anything to connect 3 "struts" into a " T" shape ,we've tried using all the parts to make a connection at all 3 points ? We've only been able to say connect one part and if we try to connect the other parts to it it then separate itself and joins the opposite side and disconnect the first connection lol..I wish there was a way we could drag each strut to a block "in the center" and then drag the ends of each strut to join the bottom and both sides on block or part to make one solid part ..we've tried everything I believe..?? Wish I could post a screenshot here so I can show you? I know it's gotta be something simple haha we've just yet to discover..dang noobs we are but I'm guessing everyone at one point was too once upon a time 😁

Use the part connections tool to edit the connections on parts, it should be relatively self-explanatory.
@Wiccanway actually besides mods and keyboard shortcuts, the mobile version has the exact same features as the pc version, the devs have made it clear that they wanted good consistency across all platforms.
