Hello,

I've searched the internet, and even watched a few youtube videos discussing how this is done, however when I try and duplicate the linking of the lever and the bridge the bridge doesn't show up in the menu. 

So I have my bridge built and have it set to retract and the direction it retracts. I also have a lever. So when I go to the lever and try and link it to the bridge using 'b' it doesn't list the bridge in the list, though it seems to center on the bridge. I've tried levers both close to the bridge and in my meeting room. On the close lever it seems to show the bridge for a split second then disappears.

The bridge isn't hooked up to any other mechanisms (and i have plenty of mechanisms).  I also have this same issue when trying to link a lever to upright training spear traps.  When I click 'S' it very very briefly shows the traps in the menu then disappears.

Any ideas?

(sorry if this has been covered a million times, I've tried searching for the answer_

I've had similar things happen because of the true-type font going wonky in the interface on occassion.

Hit the [ and ] once or twice (zoom keys), it tends to reset the font and let you see what you're working with.

Also, just try hitting enter.  It may not show the list if you only have a single bridge.

Thanks for the reply, but zooming didn't seem to solve the issue I'm having with linking levers to things.  I'm using Ironhands from the lazy noob pack.

bump.  Any ideas?

Are you using the mouse plugin from the updated LNP ? In this case save, disable the mouse and relaunch the game.

If it's an issue with truetype, F12 could help too. I'm not familiar with ironhand, maybe it's a common issue. I'm pretty sure it has its own thread in the modding section of the forum for questions, problems and bugs related to the mod (a graphics mod is still a mod)
searching...
Yep, got its own thread

in case noone here knows the answer. Good luck and have fun
