Unless you're directly facing a tile, you can no longer click on/interact with it even though it's highlighted. This applies to opening chests, harvesting crops, retrieving artisan products, and much more. It's just started happening in the v1.1-1220 update.
I've seen numerous other people report the same issues on Steam forums too.
A highly annoying issue that hampers most activities within the game.
