I do not know how to reproduce it. It seems to be quite rare but when it does happen, it is usually always on these two tiles in the middle of every platform type. The only way to get rid of it is to restart the game, then it will make the building re-appear and will let you delete it.
#[0.0.9-RC4] Phantom Buildings That Cannot Be Deleted
21 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
It won't let you delete the platform either, and when you try to delete multiple buildings at once, it won't let you if the phantom building is selected.
I have this sometimes with train stations and space belts. Afaik, this hasn't been reported yet...
It's really quite annoying
Was your game lagging at all when this happens?
I don't know. When it happens again, I'll say
No, it wasn't lagging. But now it happened again and when I click on it, the whole world turns purple.
When it's not selected, the world is normal
I honestly do not know how to reproduce it but all I know is that it happens randomly sometimes when you are deleting multiple buildings at the same time
wait I figured it out
Did restarting the game at all fix the bug?
Thanks for the report. We had this for space belts but not on actual buildings.
I am trying to reproduce it. The video helps a lot.
- When this happens again, could you share the player log file?
Maybe the devs can find more answers how to reproduce in there.
Can you share the savegame? I wonder if this would happen on a new save as well.
Thanks!
🚑 Your bug report has been verified and is now in the triage phase. We're working to reproduce and fix it.
🎉 Your bug report is currently in progress. It's being addressed and worked on.
I wonder if it isn't a Undo memory full buffer thing? When you fresh load a map you're good to go until you've deleted a LOT. Then, as if an undo-memory buffer has filled, it stops deleting and the objects remain stuck in a loop of some sort...
I had the same ghost type block appearing early game when i was in the middle of building ,maybe copy pasting but i could delete the block
🕒 The bug you reported has been fixed and is currently in the final testing phase before being released in the next update! Thank you for helping us improve our game.
It might be related, I placed a 1x1 platform, build on it and attached the belt in/outputs as usual. It was all working perfectly until I changed something, now one of my former inputs is just... gone, like not there anymore. Deleting the platform doesn't work and when I click on the missing input my world also turns purple, as if it got somehow moved into nowhere, restarting the game and loading back in seems to fix it, however. I forgot to make the screens before trying that but once it happens again (which it will because it wasn't the first time that occurred) I will deliver some screens as well..
as I suspected it's related, however I did not delete or change anything this time, it seems the belt simply decided to disappear on it's own with the same side effects as before. Platform can't be deleted nor moved nor anything literally
