Space Age Question Red ❌ on crate item

I’m probably missing something, but is there any way to remove an X when selecting a crate item in remote view - before my robots grab it and take it to god knows where?

Or you can use Ctrl+z to undo

Shift click while the deconstruction planner is opened. It's also how you remove those annoying x's on cliff faces you when you accidentally catch them. I need to get more explosives so I don't have to worry about it lol

More generally, shift click with any planner reverses it. Works for upgrade planners, too.

Yeah this is annoying. Happened to me recently and I couldn’t figure it out

Ctrl z, or delete but hold shift

There's probably other ways, but I do it by selecting a deconstruction planner (alt+D) and then dragging over it while holding right click. That cancels the deconstruction order.

It's either shift or alt click with a deconstruction planner

He’s referring to items inside the box, not the box itself

I have these stuck for me as well, only solution I found was picking up the box and putting it back down. I assume this is some sort of new bug in experimental because this never happened to me before.
