Ramp issues
The cargo ramp is a bit...temperamental. Stormworks does not like it when grippers are so close to the ground and sliding through a narrow opening.

If the ramp gets stuck, try some of these solutions:

- Turn pivot power on and off
- Turn mags on and off
- Disconnect and reconnect the power cable (it attaches in the very middle block of the ramp)
- Close the door on the ramp, then open it again

Yes, it makes it easier to handle in narrow docks where you don't have the room to fully extend.

I can't make the ramp go out.
its gets stuck at the electric connecters, and doesn't close or open after that.
I'm just trying to send the helicopter out, so I don't crash into the shallow waters.
How do I disable these electric connecters can someone please tell me.

The ramp follows a complex sequence, in a very specific order, to deploy and undeploy. Very occasionally something can happen to mess up this order (like damage to the microcontroller, or a large wave/tsunami) and the ramp gets confused.
At this point usually the only way to fix it and get it back in the correct order is to respawn the vehicle. Even if I included a way to disable the connectors, the ramp still wouldn't work properly.
