Re: 1.1.11 Cant place entity by building robots
Also happens if you hover over an entity and press Q to select it (in Map view). However Blueprints still work fine
Re: 1.1.11 Cant place entity by building robots
I'd like to add my voice to this bug report. Placing ghosts via radar or any distance from the player using items in inventory ( E ) does not work anymore as of 1.1.11
It gives no error, just does nothing. Using copy/paste to place ghosts works however.

Re: 1.1.11 Cant place entity by building robots
Looks like a regression. In 1.0 we were able to place ghosts anywhere. And now shift-click works only around the player.
Edit: 1.1.8 works fine too.

I have this bug too. Tested with underground pipes.

This is definitely a new issue since updating from 1.1.8. I don't see any options for this in settings, so please fix it

Fixed for 1.1.12

I'm still having this issue in 1.1.12, despite the changelog saying that the issue was fixed.

It's half-fixed. You can now build blueprints outside range using shift, but not with a ghost in your cursor. Using shift *and* a ghost in your cursor still allows you to build outside range, so you can use that as a workaround.AnotherNeko wrote: ↑Sun Jan 17, 2021 1:15 amI'm still having this issue in 1.1.12, despite the changelog saying that the issue was fixed.

Yep! Holding shift makes a ghost anywhere, yay!

One of the many, many many things solved for 1.1.13, there is also some refactoring included, so a lot of code got deduplicated and cleaned up. Bunch of things got fixed by it, this being one of them.
