https://node2.projectplanet.cn/@steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3186462001 Here we go! Finally, after more than 1K hours reasonably bug free, all bugs that I have been told of happened at once. On the good side, I believe that them all are rooted to the same issue, something I did that triggered it. But only next playthrough will tell...

This is one of the many errors that spawned, and all are related to the grid. In the specific a meteor destroyed a building. All of these bugs were affecting outside buildings only, in-dome ones always worked finely. And now a big explanation...

Differently than usual (a compact self-sufficient colony) this time I went with the task to harvest all resources on the whole map. The plan was simple, build a small site, get everything there, build the next small site, move everyone there, leave behind domes and life-grid related buildings only, repeat until needed. First migration was done on foot, second site was in walking distance, and nothing was strange until then. Third site instead was more distant and connected by a Tunnel. As I started to demolish around second site, started to notice that instead to demolish and dismantle, the command was issuing only a demolish call (like when pressing Y while selecting something). After some testing it was looking it went fine, but it was only temporary...

While demolishing around third site, everything went awry. Dismantling a building was not dropping resources, the building itself was not changing appearance, removing of the building had to be called manually. And if the building was still selected at the moment of demolition, the panel was showing mixed buttons and info from working building panel and rebuilding panel.

Not only, a removed building was leaving their "presence" as drones and rovers were not passing where a building was. Demolished a Ramp above a Passage, drones were still using it; built a new one not much distant, no one used it; built a Large Water Tank in front of were the removed Ramp was, everyone was passing into it like if it was not there. But it was anyway filling normally. Plus, a rover that passed into it, later was passing through all other Large Water Tanks too. A demolished metal or water extractor was leaving a "hole" on the map where the sky below was visible (or stars if at night).

Yes, the other half of this bug is that buildings added after the bug triggers are "not completely there". A newly built dome, its green floor was bare terrain and drones were passing through the dome itself; a new passage, again like if it was not there with drones passing through it; a new metal extractor, no hole in the ground; a new water extractor, no hole in the ground (but working normally). A new waste rock depot, completely invisible, leaving no debris if demolished, filled normally by drones, and at the same time they were able to pass through waste rocks and depot alike.

The only workaround was to save and reload, this way all of the above were getting fixed. No more holes on the map, no more invisible waste rock depots, no more invisible dome floor, no more "thin as air" domes and passages and ramps and buildings, no more "presence" of demolished buildings still around. Until next time I was going to demolish anything outside of domes -.-

Even demolishing a simple cable connected to nothing was going to trigger the bug again, like if it was latent in the save. Adding anything was fine, removing something was forbid, until the very last before to save and quit. The moment this bug was triggering there were a small freeze immediately after demolition. Had even a meteor hitting a tunnel once, tunnel remained there without to change appearance (but actually it was broke already), meteor remained spinning just above tunnel, impact icon still on the ground, warning message always on. The workaround unfortunately didn't remove the meteor and impact icon and message, that time I had to reload from an older save.

I believe I was the cause that triggered the original issue, while I was placing on the ground cables to mimic the footprints of few outside buildings. Problem was that I was next to a powered dome and I had researched Superior Cables already, and when I went to remove them something odd happened (other than the strange shape they took).

A friend of mine, doing the same but on a different map, had no issues at all. And they were using tunnels before too, or spreading the colony on the whole map, or harvesting everything. Instead they were able to spot something new.

First, for a single day their rockets stopped to blink, as some reported in this forum recently, but at next reload everything was back to normal. I still have to experience this bug myself anyway. And then, the milestone about 40% workers in Workshops, looks like that now it triggers, not like before that the only way was to save then reload in order to trigger it. And I confirmed on my side it too but it only works between midnight and 1AM (if not at 1AM exactly). The feeling that someone is touching the code is back : /

Last one, a glitch involving passages. If placing a passage perfectly straight that is long 20 hexes between dome A and dome B, then it is possible to stretch it indefinitely in a straight line. So it is possible to place a dome A, then a dome B at the right distance, and then a dome C far away from both, and have dome A and dome C connected while dome B will host the passage passing by (no access to it). Not of a practical use but it is possible to connect a distant outpost if there is a straight and flattened line between them. I made a test and was able to connect two domes four sectors and half away from each other. Each section (20 hexes) of this passage will cost 2 Concrete only, while the last "shorter" section will cost normally.

Back to the bugfest, I hope that in the next playthrough it won't repeat, or that someone can understand (or already know) what was actually triggering it. I still have the save, but there are no more deposits so part of this bug cannot be tested anymore. Probably I forgot of something but those are already more than enough issues -.-
