If you try to place a ladder on a road it will not be built. This includes the auto ladders placed for placing items high up on walls next to roads.

If a Hearthling can get to the top of where the ladder is to be placed they will build it from the top down, but will not place the bottom block of the ladder.

Nah it’s fine, I put traffic cones out and there’s a diversion route that takes them on a half hour tour of the countryside. 😆

hmm… @Albert was this fixed in the most recent unstable build? or has it just been fixed on the devs machines?

I think that his comment might have been written after Friday’s release, so probably it’s for the next release, not the 335 one… 😕

@8BitCrab Should be fixed on release 345 (but not 335).

@hellthrive I just updated steam to 345 a few minutes ago. Can you confirm your version?
