Upon finishing up a tender I was working on, in the game I noticed that it's way too far away from the steam engine it's supposed to be attached to. Is there some way to adjust or fix this? Thanx in advance

Hi,In the first place a length problem.
So the 3rd value of the Size parameter in the .eng file.Dick van den Hoven

As Dick said the length is the problem..when that is sorted you can adjust your bounding box to be approx 0.30m shorter at both ends. This ensures that the couplers are not included and prevents the tender from touching the BB of the next wagon when going round tight bends etc..
