Block Hologram disappears/doesn't lock on + Deleting grids in distance.

The block hologram sometimes disappears when I am building.


  • Clicking makes a block placement sound, nothing else.
  • The sound that is made varies. One is the invalid sound the other is the block being placed sound.
  • Changing blocks wont get the block hologram back.
  • This was only tested on a grid that is slightly moving due to the player accidentally tapping it extremely lightly.
  • To get the block hologram back you need to fly very close to the grid until the selector/hologram appears again.

This might be related to the issue where I would often ctrl-x to cut grids, and instead of the grid I am pointing at being cut, a grid behind it, like another ship or station is cut instead.


  • In the video it doesn't show this, but the block hologram/selector is on the grid behind (the red ship), so it cuts that grid, rather than the grid you're looking at. And the grid you're looking at is blocking the view - which will lead players to being confused as to why grids behind what they are looking at is being cut if the grid they are looking at blocks the view of the hologram in the distance.
  • Likewise if I switch to hand, in the last video. You can see the same problem occurs, just this time the red ship behind the grid I am trying to cut won't have any indicators on it at all. And it will just be cut.

All videos display different tactics, switching keys, flying close, and the cut problem when having a block selected, or when having hand selected.
