Hi.

Reporting for notice since it's practically game breaking bug and you definitely should check player-base sudden drop in charts after a recent update.

Update introduced bug, where player constructed buildings just vanish. I noticed it happens specifically with those on resources.

Some people even reported how their main base vanishes.

Vanishing happens seemingly at random, and can be extremely persistent. Tile just refuses to finish any building. You construct anything on tile, it finishes construction and poof, it's gone.

Since I played last in campaign on map with Mule market module, I was assuming it was it crushing spots, but after experimenting I can tell for sure it's not the case.

Please look in to this ASAP as game is basically unplayable in current state and more people are recognizing it.

+1 for vanishing building bug

 

I've been doing campaign (Io, multiple characters/HQs i.e robotics, elite etc).

 

Seems to be:

 - Only on tiles with a resource (metals, elements, etc)

 - Even if you put something else on that tile (electronics factory, etc) still can disappear

 - Not consistent, but when it happens it happens a LOT.

 - You farm 1 or two ticks, the building disappears, you rebuild, repeat. It could happen hundreds of times.

 - its not consistent - some tiles are fine, sometimes not. about every 2 missions

 - only occurred since the patch. I'd been playing before about 300h, never seen it happen. Happened immediately after the patch multiple missions

 

it completely unplayable and frustrating

I've seen this happen twice so far:

- First was on a level three carbon, now I'm seeing this in my current game on a level three silicon

- Both times the resource is isolated, not neighboring any other resource

- After the building is complete, it mines a few units, then the building disappears and a transport is sent back

- Creating a new building has the same result

 

This is on Mars maps with version 1.23.65337 in the campaign mode.

I would like to report a bug.

During multiplayer game, most of the times the game mechanics suddenly stop and my friends say that i am replaced by AI and i cant build anything anymore. I dont understand what happens as most of my friends dont have this issue and i havent found a forum mentioning it either. Please help!!
