[2.0.11] Unable to delete space platform foundations

Post by FluffyDiscord »

I put down bunch of SPF ghosts, creating my ship layout, in hopes, that it will eventually place them all down.

What I got after a while was a nice warning telling me I have gaps in my platform, which I do not remember making. The issue was that the "auto builder" that places them down does it randomly and it itself created those gaps, without my control.

I though that hey, that's weird, that it's not resolved automatically by game, so I proceeded to remove all platforms. I quickly ran to another issue. I cannot remove all platforms for some bizarre reason... I guess game thinks all of those are independent platforms and refuses to remove them.

Trying to fill the gaps one by one doesn't work, as the game remembers them and refuses to place platforms over them.

Thanks for the report. Do you have steps I can do to get a new platform into this broken state?
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

Hi, sorry for the late response. I wasn't notified (probably need to check my notification settings).

I was messing around with ghosts, since I didn't have space platforms made yet.

I remember placing down platforms randomly around, then removing some (Alt+D), then placing down again (ctrl+c and ctrl+v using the ghosts), moving from other side than before, shaping something by moving quite far out, finishing by filling back the empty middle.

After I had sizable platform as seen in screenshot, I then let rockets supply the platforms.

I have not encountered this issue again. It might have been fixed by all of these smaller hotfixes.
