Hello,

I have noticed the following bug after the recent upgrade to stable B19: all the material selection options (i.e. select wall, floor, furniture material, etc.) via right-click do not work (as in, nothing happens after the right-click). Some extra notes:

  • I made sure there are some stone blocks and wood available in the stockpile.
  • I am still able to build, for example, sandstone walls if I select Copy option on an existing wall - which switches default wall type in the Structure interface to sandstone walls.
  • I am successfully able to select other right-click options, like un-forbid all, or cancel all deconstruction designations.
  • This is tested with all mods disabled and Steam file integrity validation performed.
  • Material selection was working fine for me till just couple days ago.
I was expecting to find this issue already reported, but could not find anything... Even if it is only something with my setup, I am really confused on how this happened to be.
Please let me know if there is any additional information I can share.

Save file (fresh Crashlanded start, only added couple stone stacks via developer tools for testing): https://ufile.io/mwbgr
Log file is attached.
I am using Ubuntu 16.04 x64 OS, if that makes any difference.

Hi,
new version new gameplay mechanics.
Material selection is now left click not rightclick anymore.
And floors got now like wall's a material selection too.

OMG, how did I not notice this before? It works! I feel really embarrassed now :(

Thanks for letting me know! Was this in the release notes by any chance? Do not think I saw any mentions of this.

It is a clarity problem, it's true. But not a bug! Closing, thanks for the report.
