numan-chris is on a distinguished road
I'm currently creating a model of a car chassis, I get to a point where the simulation (adding constraints and loads to observe deformed shape) works fine, but then adding in extra beams to the chassis I receive this error when clicking solve: "There are at least 1 small equation solver pivot terms" and it won't solve.

I'm creating these beams simply by adding two keypoints in the middle of existing elements and joining them with a line so I can't see why this would cause the simulation not to work,

thanks in advance
