Can't place any new block on my ships in survivol
Submitted
I've been playing survivol for last couple of weeks and build pretty large ship. But today I noticed, that I'm not able to place any new block(projection) on any of my grids. Sometimes I get message that says something like: "Make sure that space for placing the block is free", but mostly it's just that denial sound.
I made a video.
UPDATE.
I have an update on this one. So previously I've been connecting this ship to Vallation Station with connectors. I did weld some blocks on my ship, while it was connected to the station. Now I came back there and found all those projections there where my ship was connected to the station. See the screenshot
Game version is: v2.2.0.2002
I have the same bug

I managed to fix this by switching to creative mode, cutting and pasting my grids and then switching back to survivol.

I experienced a version of this today after the .2002 patch.
Small station with ship grid attached. Move into NPC bubble prior to shutdown for the night.
Patch .2002
Load in, move station/ship out of bubble. Cannot place blocks on either grid. No error message.
Look around and see a dozen full armor blocks sitting back inside the bubble. Obviously I couldn't place them there originally, there are no holes in the existing grids so they weren't just lost...The blocks did not move back and forth as I moved the grids around either. So they were attached....but not really?
Workaround: debug menu, safe zones, set ignore safe zone to on, go into the bubble and remove the blocks. Turn safe zone back on. Placing blocks onto grid that is clearly outside bubble now works again.

Exact same bug! I built a ship and then flew 40km from base. Wanted to do some modifications in space but it wouldn't let me place anything. When I came back to base, all the blocks I wanted to place were placed where I originally built the ship in the first place.

Got the exact same bug. I noticed I went to put new thrusters on my ship they wouldnt attach. I turned around and saw a bunch of blue glowies (projection) in an area that the ship was located in not less than 5-10mins earlier. Went over and deleted these projections, came back to the ship and was able to place new blocks on my ship. I decided to do another test, moved the ship to a new location and tried to put a new block on my ship and same thing, the projects appear in the last position my ship was. So again I had to go to where the projects spawned, delete them, go back to the ship and I was able to add my blocks again to the ship. This is all in my survival mode, I have not attempted any of the debug suggestions here yet.

It sounds like there's two separate bugs here?
Bug#1 - The game allowed you to place new blocks and weld inside of the safe zone at Valation station.
Bug#2 - When you enter the game, you can place new blocks if you have not moved your ship. Once you move your ship, the game's building system thinks your ship is at the original location, no matter how far you've flown the ship since the world had loaded. When you place new blocks they are placed at the original grid location, not at the current grid location.
