I can't get my cheif to direct work for puzzle 9. I drop him in the right spot because it says this would be a good spot..... but then he just walks away. The scafolding is there but thats it

If you don't have v1.00.04 of the game, you should update your game to the latest release. You can get the update by clicking on the picture of VV3 at the top of the left column of this page.
