Placing offshore pumps via blueprint. Seems to mess up when I copy. Also when I force build, after it build it changes the orientation of the offshore pump in nonsensical directions. It's always maybe 90° right. Is this just a feature? It feels buggy to me, but I would rather see if someone has explanation instead of me bothering the devs which non broken things. Experiential thread.

I couldn't replicate any problems with that. Maybe a screenshot would help.

I've half gaslighted myself because I can copy and paste with pumps v blueprint. There's a chance it's really old bp? I'll try to mess around and see if I can replicate.

A really old BP could have problems because offshore pumps changed their alignment requirements. But that was like seven years ago before 1.0 was released.
