[16.7] Placing blueprints in chunks not covered by radar

It seems that as a result of these 2 items being fixed, whenever I place a blueprint that extends into a chunk not covered by radar, the part that is in that chunk never gets marked for build. I really hope that this is a bug and not a intended function because I used this all the time in 15.X while expanding my bases borders. It still occurs with all mods disabled.

EDIT: images are posted in reverse order (it's been a long time since I was on a forum).

I've placed it at the end of the existing segment of wall, where most of it extends into the chunk not covered by radar

You can see that the size of the blueprint is about the height of my screen

Thanks for the report however: It's not, what you're seeing is intended behavior.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
