There's serious issues with the landscaping tool and placement of buildings.
At Ravenport I was going to place a shed, I tried to avoid the ground to build up a huge mound under it..that didn't go very well, so I sold it and was going to try a new placement, but no, I can't place a building in that spot anymore. So I thought I'd try to level the ground using the landscaping tool, but the game won't let me, all I get is a message that the ground can't be modified on that spot..I can't even smooth it, and it looks awfull now, after a while I was going to try placing the shed again, but nooo, no can do, "building can't be purchased right now. Please try again later", even though the building was green.

Re: Landscaping tool
Yeah, the ground deformation and placeables *censored* at the moment.
90% of the time it's saying me the terrain can't be modified. But it is completely flat...

Re: Landscaping tool
I have encountered the same thing. Its like there is a ghost of the previous structure present and so trigering the no-modification triggers.
Re: Landscaping tool
The only time I've seen "building can't be purchased etc" was when I had place 'anywhere mod' installed, removed that and it was fine. Just a thought.Totenfarmer wrote: ↑Sat Dec 22, 2018 8:06 pm There's serious issues with the landscaping tool and placement of buildings.

Re: [READ] Landscaping tool
Strange...I tried this with a couple of sheds and had no problem removing and replacing them in the same space again. Is this happening only with a certain building/placeable?
Re: [READ] Landscaping tool
I noticed it helps if you makes the terain uneven again instead of leveled.

Re: Landscaping tool
lol..I'm experiencing the exact opposite, just a few days ago I installed the place anywhere script and haven't had this problem sincepcdoc wrote: ↑Thu Dec 27, 2018 10:10 pmThe only time I've seen "building can't be purchased etc" was when I had place 'anywhere mod' installed, removed that and it was fine.

Re: [READ] Landscaping tool
For me it seemed to happen randomly, it happened at Estancia when I tried to place buildings and objects between the railroad and the old house where the original sheep husbandry was, I also chopped down trees and removed stumps, I also used the stump grinder to remove all of those small cactus/bush things.x Lethian x wrote: ↑Tue Jan 08, 2019 10:42 am Strange...I tried this with a couple of sheds and had no problem removing and replacing them in the same space again.

Thenn it also happened at Ravenport, I am unable to edit the terrain and place buildings after 1 placemennt and landscape adjustment where the small Easy shed is originally by the farm entrance, right next to field 19.
Both scenarios was onnn dedicated server multiplayer in farm manager mode, there was also no difference with or without mods.
Re: [READ] Landscaping tool
At first I had thought this was a bug with the light mod I was using, but even after removing the mod from the server and my game, the problem still persisted. I have encountered it with a couple of other buildings as well, and it does seam to be random. I do not have the place anywhere mod installed.
Re: [READ] Landscaping tool
I got this problem only at one place, where I put a sheed in a gameplay bevor update and deleted the sheed (before update).
I still use this savegame after update and still couldn't place there something or (after the update with landscaping tooö) still couldn't change the ground.
I think it belongs to savegames used before update and after update.
At a new game after update, I don't have a problem at that special place anymore.

Re: [READ] Landscaping tool
I've posted another repot regarding the same issue, on the south American map if you start the game in manager, or sell the stock silo's in easy the terrain is UN editable. I've noticed this with most map standard placeables and the sheds.x Lethian x wrote: ↑Tue Jan 08, 2019 10:42 am Strange...I tried this with a couple of sheds and had no problem removing and replacing them in the same space again.

Side note ADD IN THE STOCK SILO FROM THE S.A. MAP TO MOD HUB.
Re: [READ] Landscaping tool
An update to my occurance of this issue. There used to be some mods involved, but thinking it was somehting from one of the placeable mods I have now removed those mods from both the server and my game. Yet, I have the same areas which can not be altered for no apparent reason. I would 'assume' that if it was something being left behind by a mod, then the removal of the mod should remove whatever was left behind when the item was sold. Yet with the mods gone, still can not edit. This is on the 2nd map.
You can clear see everal areas which have not been leveled out yet as pits in the terrain. All I get is the error displayed at the bottom of the image with no explination as to why it can not be altered any more. If its a specific mod causing the problem, I have no idea what mod it could be?
As mentioned, the mods that provided the placeables that used to be sitting in those spots are nolonger on the server or my game, so it obviously can not be any of those by rocess of elimination. This would suggest an issue with the placement system as a whole somewhere? I do not know. I am not a programmer or coding specialist.
