Disappearing Walls when Finishing Editing a Building

Summary: Random bits of the Wall disappear when starting to build a building or loading it from blueprint.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Build a largeish building that involves the free standing walls.
  2. Start letting it be build or save it to a blueprint and place that.

Expected Results: The building is created as edited.

Actual Results: Immediately upon starting, walls disappear.

Notes: My guess is that it’s due to the free standing wall elements. When I tried to replace them on the blue print version, the walls appeared, but not the columns.

The preview of the Building Template shows it correctly (albeit from the other side)

but this is what it looks like when placed:

Welcome to the forum, @Banane9 :slight_smile:

This is another case of exploding templates. Thank you very much for the files!

Thanks!

What’s that bug about? O.o

Not sure yet, it’s a bit difficult to debug.
But it sometimes happens when placing templates down, that the parts appear moved or some wall is missing.
We have a case with one of the default templates too (Rayya’s Shadow) but I think that that template was working at first, so not sure what is happening :thinking:

So, does the building get turned into a template before it’s actually build (during the processing phase)?

Because it also happened with the straight up edited-and-build building

I believe that is correct, because after you create a building you can allows go back and save it as a reusable template later.

On another node… they like to create ALL the ladders

Lotsa ladders, mate!

That side is done, yet they’re building a whole wall of ladders

It's ladders all the way down!
