Cannot change the Bench or Splash Material
Unfortunately, this cannot be fixed with a marketplace update. It's not possible anymore to update the product there.Open any of the Modular Kitchen Blueprints with CTRL+E. There is an error in the Construction Script. The UV-Adjustment is behind a conditional branch node. So the Construct Node never reaches this section.
You can try to fix the problem by setting the nodes up like seen in the image.
