[2.1.11] Space Platform Foundations not building when too many are placed at one time

[odweaverel]

I created a blueprint of space platform foundations placed to fill all allowed space when a space platform is fresh before it allows for expansion.

When I attempted to place this blueprint I noticed that no foundations were being placed despite having hundreds in inventory.

If I undid the blueprint placement and placed some manually it would place the foundations, but if i attempted to place the blueprint again, it would not build.

I tried setting up some cargo holds and then the foundations from the blueprint were placed.

This happens every time I attempt it. It gives me the impression that there needs to be enough space in cargo for the entire blueprint before it will place any pieces at all and as the user I would expect that if there are valid items in inventory that can be placed that they would be placed.

Thanks for the report however this is not a bug. The engine only checks so many foundations to be built each tick and since you've spammed them to an excess amount it will take *a while* to go over them and find the few that it can actually build.

The simply solution is *just don't do that*.

thank you for the response. I tested it by speeding up time in the editor and it does eventually place the foundations

I will continue to do that but only because i'm fine with waiting lol
