Ark Model Disappears
I think this is my bad (and/or mit's, for not noticing). The model needs its noclip setting changed. It is not, however, a bug.
Basically, the game engine only draws models it thinks you can see. Buildings are built at a specific location on the world map. They have specific coordinates. If you can't see those coordinates in your current camera view, the engine won't draw the building.
With small buildings that's fine. With large structures like the henge and the foundations of the ark and tower, that's not fine... the models extend way beyond their home coordinates. You can't see the model's "home" coordinates, so the engine doesn't draw it... but it should.
There's a setting to disable that behaviour in the model files - next time mit updates the client I'll make sure he has updated models. That oughta fix it.
