[2.0.10] Cursor is deconstructing whatever it touches

[doktorstick]

I was building a few things, couple of ghosts, couple of real entities, and I hit "undo" (CTRL-Z). The game started wigging out where a ghost would be replaced, then deleted, then replaced, then deleted, and my personal bots would keep trying to place the item.

This caused the cursor to get stuck in deleting mode, deconstructing whatever I hover it over. You can get it out of the state by placing an item. I then hit the "undo" button and it got back into the state. The save is in this state (tested by reloading). Just drag the cursor over any entities and they'll be deleted.

Hello! The included save works fine for me.

Do you have some custom settings for the "Mine" (default is right-click)?
Also, does the issue persist when you disable mods?

I've not changed any of the keybinds.

The save doesn't work for me now that the game was shutdown and restarted. It was repeatably present when I went to ESC | Load Game | space-age-deconstruct-bug.

by "doesn't work" you mean still the same behavior or it does not even load?
Did the behavior persist after disabling mods?

Fair enough. The broken state is not seen in the save once I restarted the Factorio client and loaded the submitted save file. Since it is not in the bugged state, I did not attempt without mods.

OK, so I am gonna mark this as resolved (not a bug) since there is basically nothing to fix now (and I have nowhere to begin investigating the past issue). Thanks for the report anyway.

If this comes back, just comment here, I should get a notification.
