[2.0.9] Train hints don't show on ghost rails when building train stop / anything near a stop

[manuco]

I don't have any construction bot. I use the distant view to plan my setup.

In the distant view, when I try to build a ghost train stop on a ghost rail :
- there is no green square showing / hinting me where to put the (ghost) stop. These hints show for a nearby already built track
- there is no wagon marks showing the places of a potential stopped train. Yet hints are showed when hovering the nearby built track with a station stop (ghost or not)

Same problem when in the real view.

Same problem when building anything (like inserters) ghost or not near a ghost train stop : no wagon marks is displayed.

These hints should show when hovering ghost tracks, while building ghost stops or real ones.

Thanks for the report however this is not a bug. Ghost rails do not contain any of the required info to show these indicators and as such don't show them.

Thanks for the reply ! As everyone, I appreciate your commitment

In this case, would it be possible, maybe one day, to consider this as a feature request ? Or is it either a wanted non feature or a hard technical limitation ?
