[0.17.2]Destroyed building doesn't have the 'purple bar' anymore

Post by JaJe »

Hello,
See the video below:
While I was under attack by aliens, some of my building get destroyed. On previous version 0.16.51 the destroyed building transforms into semi-transparent ghost building with a purple bar. Right now doesn't exist anymore which can be very difficult if you have a large base and have an unexpected attack that destroy most of the stuff and don't know exactly what they destroyed.

Also, these aliens dead bodies makes even difficult to see destroyed belts.

It only happens if you have bots researched.

I think you're referring to when bots would automatically replace buildings that were destroyed. Research bots and get a logistic network setup.

And seems like only vanilla bots - not Angel's bots from my 0.16 game - not sure if it is/was hardcoded or an oversight on the part of Angel ?

To be honest I never paid attention of that on 0.16.51 BEFORE having the bots tech researched and I thought that how should be available from start. Still is hard to identify the damage early game and needs that info available even if you don't have bots researched imo.
