I had this problem before. This is my workaround - if you click the item that has been marked for permanant undeploy quickly (after it is placed and before it is picked back up), it will usually clear the undeploy arrow.
I’m not sure what’s going on here, but everytime I try to place a birdbath, my hearthians set it down and then come right back, remove it, and put it back in the stockpile, just as if it was undeployed.
do you have any other activities happening at the same time? have you tried isolating it such that there are no harvesting, building actions taking place… and you ONLY attempt to simply place a birdbath?
sooo first the normal pathfinding bug - mason get the bath goes to the ore stockpile -> then install it and then he remove it immediately and bring it to the correct stockpile, then to the ore stockpile and the he stands there doesnt know why and later he let the bath fall xD
I also experienced this bug on the x64 version. It was sad, because I had just built the birdbath and was gonna place around some stone benches and flowers… for some reason, they just picked it back up once they put it down.
Iv’e found in the newest build that when I tell one of my villagers to place a bird bath, They build it and then instantly dismantle it and bring it back to storage. Recreating this is easy, Just try and place a bird bath. Don’t know if anyone else is seeing this or not just thought I’d bring it up.
