[2.0.77] Can't open building's UI while having seeds in hand

Post by Amegatron »

Reproduction:
1) Either in map- or "live" view, take tree seeds in hand (including ghost item)
2) Click on any building for which you want to open UI (especially concerns Agricultural Towers where you'd wanna put the seeds)

What should happen:
Building's UI opens and you can place the items there.

What happens instead:
Game tries to plant the seed but says that it can't be planted because the building prevents it.

Factorio version: 2.0.77, but it has been here for a while already.

Additional notes:
I started to place a lot of AT's recently to mitigate pollution, and they usually need to be manually primed with seeds. But currently I have to open each individual Tower first, and only then pick the (ghost-)seeds to put into them. Instead, it would be more convenient if it worked as usual: with an item in my hand, I just open the UI and place the item there.

Thanks for the report however this is working as intended and works the same when holding buildable machines.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
