Building Templates Possibly Caught on Ghost Entity?

Summary:

I’d like to place a building around this area. I like to keep my buildings tight especially with Ascendancy Level 2 housing. Something is preventing me from placing down building blueprints and I can’t seem to figure out what.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Load save and navigate to the Island with the houses on it.
  2. Use the Design a building tool and select Templates
  3. Try to place a building opposite to the row of houses next to the bridge (Like in the screenshot)

Expected Results:

You can place the building, specifically opposite the other buildings and paralell to the one under construction.

Actual Results:
Something invisible is preventing me from placing it.

Notes:
Take note of the displacement between the cursor and the corner building being placed. The building template seems to be caught on something invisible. This has persisted a lot in the past but this is the first time I’m bug reporting it.

and I can give any other information you need.

I recently encountered something like this, it occurred when removing a building, and remaining paused. This doesn’t allow the building entity to be removed. Try letting the game run until you see a poof, and re-pause. Hope this helps!

I have. I built those 3 buildings, then built three more a little more in on the island, built a bunch of other stuff elsewhere and decided I wanted to come back to that spot. Nope.

All I can assume is something similar happened, but the building entity was not removed, has this continued to occur elsewhere?

Yes, in other saves. I think this is occurring because I’ll put down the building, then edit it, them move it over, and when I do that sometimes the blue outline for the building stays in the original spot.

Ah, yes the building’s entity will stretch rather than move, the best option is saving a temp blueprint, removing the initial building and replacing it.

A good idea. I’ll have to do that in the future.
Is my town doomed? Will destroying the building fix it?

I would have to assume so, unless a larger bug is at play, it should fix it. :slight_smile:

Yep that fixed it. Shoot. This is dumb. Oh well.
