Mining drill ghost will not place when blocked by other entity even though it is in position without ores

[HutnikSon]

When placing ghosts of mining drills, the ghost will not place because some drills are blocked by other entities (in my case rail) even though there is no ore on that specific spot and the mining drill wouldnt place anyway, so the ghost valid placement check should still pass and place the ghosts.

This is not a bug.

I'm not entirely sure what you're getting at, but if what you're saying is that you have a large blueprint and a small part is blocked, hold shift and click to place ghosts for the parts that are not obstructed.

I mean that when placing a blueprint with a miner and something is blocking a miner then it gives an error even if there is no ore below that specific miner, so it wouldn't be placed anyways. It forces me to click shift when it shouldn't because I know the miner wonpt be placed anyway.
