sounds like for some reason your restart isn't loading the mod, those hosted sites with mod auto updater sometimes mess up your mod loading. I have this mod loading in the Game.ini and all other mods loaded under the User.ini file so that doesn't happen.

I'm hosting the server on my own computer and self update the mods

With mods with a lot of files, (either size or number of files), there a quite a few things that can go wrong when you update. The easiest steps are these. Try the first one, check if it worked, try the next:
Revert your save file to the one generated right before your update. This one is important to do after doing each step below so copy it instead of just renaming it. Every time you boot your server with a broken install it can wipe the db of everything from that mod so you need to maintain a clean copy for each step.

Verify that you're able to spawn and place items in single player then verify that your server's 539464369 folder, (my mod), is exactly the same as your client's. Many third party uploaders do not have proper error checking so my 1500 files will fail often with certain programs like Filezilla. When updating make sure you delete the entire 539464369 folder before uploading.

Try moving my mod to as close to first in your ActiveMods list as possible, (second if you run a custom map).

thanks hogs. appreciate the quick response and will do all those steps

hey hogs, im still having difficulty after completely deleting and putting it back in with a fresh install. the engrams show up for my server but unable to learn any of them.

the Items i can summon, but i cannot summon the Workshop bench

it tells me the Mod isnt "downloaded" on my ark server manager but ingame i can summon the castle items (except the workbench) and i am unable to place any items i summoned. i deleted the entire folder , reinstalled it on my computer and then on my server but still nothing.

having the same issue right now
