Hello,
here with a question because it may be a bug or maybe it's intended. I seem to not be able to construct production tables with blocks anymore. is that intended so? or is it a bug? i remember clearly i could construct production table like tailoring and sculptures with blocks, a few were only with steel like cooking stove.

The option for the stuff (like the blocks) only appear on the list only if you have them available
check if you have them in your storage areas or around the map somewhere

if those things are in check then there's probably something buggered but it's really hard to tell without seeing the game!

How far back are you remembering? I don't ever recall being able to build tailoring benches or the like from stone blocks (I think A6 was the first alpha I played, but it was too long ago to remember now). I've just checked the oldest alpha I had to hand (A10f), and the choice of materials is the same as it is in A15c:- (screenshot attached).

Silver
Gold
Steel
Plasteel
Wood
Uranium

Are you sure you weren't using a mod(s)? Because I'm not sure this was an option in vanilla, or at least not for a long time and many alphas. (but I could be wrong, although even then I highly doubt this is a bug of any sort and that it is by design that you can't use stone blocks to build production tables).

yeah i looked now at the older versions and only the research table i could do with stone blocks. i had remembered wrong. i now tried to build them with stoneblocks instead of wood. while before i always built them with wood cuz i wasn't using it for much else, now that there are these torches and stoves with wood and so on i was trying to build them with stones and it wasn't working.
thanks for the responses.

Thanks for posting with an update. I'll close this thread now then since there is no bug here.
