I have noticed a few similar topics being posted but they seemed to happen at a different time, so I figured I should post as well.
Summary: I was trying to create a custom building, and was placing chests and everything was fine. Then after placing a row and I started to place on the other side of the building I got an engine error pop up.
The first one and the second one occurred at the same time.
First error : release-687 (x64)

Then there was a visual bug when I tried to place a chest over a previously placed chest, but this time no error.
I then gave up and deleted the blueprint of the building I was making and then a few moments later I got a fourth engine error
Fourth error: release-687 (x64)

I do have the save file folder right after the fourth error if anyone is interested in seeing if it can be recreated.
@Relyss. So I think I figured out part of the reason why it is happening. It occurred when I accidentally tried to place a storage box inside the wall that I had placed. Therefore it seems to be recreate-able. The error I got this time was the same as the first error I got earlier. I have also attached the save file. I hope this is useful. 1478568287705.zip (4.1 MB)
Summary:
Not sure why someone would want to do this as I discovered by accident. If when building a building, and you place a decoration (tested with dining table and writing desk) on the wall blueprint, it throws an error.
Steps to reproduce:
Go to create custom building mode
Create a random foundation + wall blueprint
Try to place a non wall item (chair, table, etc) on top of wall blueprint
Expected Results:
Either to attempt to place the item on the wall, or tell me I can’t do it as I can’t think of a reason to do it.
Actual Results:
Throws error:

I totally agree! I hope to see stonehearth grow into something big! I have been following the game for a while now and you guys have done an amazing job so far! Glad i could help!
I’d been wondering about the small crates, and the small pots, and the decorative tray, and the beds.
.
That said, the game has been being difficult about placing things in general.
Mod-related items are allways iffy, … (the sheer number that take up more space than they ought to, …)
But when I’m placing a bed on the floor, and it teleports onto the roof (when I have roofs turned off) is a bit of a problem.
.
Allso, placing small crates/pots (and chests of either type) on top of large crates has been problematic too, the placement tries to ignore the crate, and place on the floor under it.
.
.
Allso, are garden lanterns only placeable on the ground? I could have sworn I used to place them on fenceposts (the wooden fence item, not a building shaped like a fencepost). I can place regular wall-lanterns, but they just don’t have the look I was going for.
Note that there are two versions of lanterns, one for walls, and one for ground. But both can be mismatched and placed wherever you want (from what I remember)
i think this has been reported before, but i’m not certain if the teams had a chance to look into it yet.
i’ve just merged your thread over here to the other one,
