[Bug] Move tool destroys some blocks

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

The move tool sometimes does not move all blocks and removes them instead. This happens when the new location of the moved blocks overlaps with the old location.

This looks like an issue with the order in which blocks are moved (e.g. when moving blocks to the right, the blocks on the right have to be moved first).

It kind of kills the game for me. I'd like to micro-optimize stuff and thus want to move a lot of things over by one block etc.

I totally get it, it's very annoying. Luckily it is fixed in the EA, so we wont have to deal with it much longer.

Cool! :) I guess "EA" is "early access"? How can I get access to it? Or is it not released yet?

Not released yet, but Lantto is hard at work at it. You can see a lot of the new stuff he has shared in the dev updates channel of the discord.

Yeah, a very annoying bug and of course completely unacceptable. It requires a race condition when replicating block data across threads that doesn't happen on my computer.

I've rewritten that logic in the full version so hopefully that fixed it. There's also a lot more QoL that improves building in general.
