[Resolved] Cannot destroy Diesel Locomotive

Hello, it seems that I cannot actually remove my Diesel Locomotive from the tracks. When I hover the cursor over it, it just goes to the tracks below. I can't right click it or anything, and unlike the car it doesn't have that blue / black rectangle indicator underneath it showing the direction. Here is a picture of it:

I haven't tried a new save to see if it also has this error, but it was also like this in the 0.2.6 alpha release too.
I am using the windows 64 bit version.

You can make it mineable by adding below lines in ..\data\prototype-definitions\entity\entities.json -file.
Place under "name": "diesel-locomotive" -line.

Code: Select all

"selection-box": [[-0.7, -2.5], [1.0, 2.5]],
"minable": { "mining-time": 1, "result": "diesel-locomotive" },

Ok, I guess this can be closed as not a bug. I didn't realize they weren't destroyable

Well, our plan for the future was, that big vehicles like locomotives, tanks, cars etc wouldn't be craftable in hand.
You would make them in special building and you would never be able to carry these around as items.
You can still destroy these the regular way.
But the fact it was missing the selection box is a bug and I will fix it.

Related bug? Using a flamethrower on a locomotive crashes the game.
