Bug/Issue Right click destroys craftable machines

On my main save file, that I had since launch, I am running into the problem that the mouse right click/X Check/Do action button is destroying all place-able machines on my farm outside of buildings. Everything is affected: sapper, beehives, flowerpots, scarecrows, artisan product machines, everything. What is even more puzzling my newer save, after the update, doesn't have this problem. Any help or info would be appreciated.

 

Hrm, I created a savefile on v1.07, and gave myself a couple items(cheesepress/scarecrow). I also tried crafting a few bee houses; placing them all outside. Then loaded the save in both v1.11 and the current Beta, but I can't seem to reproduce the error.

Was your savefile modded in any way?

 

Yes, I had followed a guide on how to add a second pet to the farm giving me a dog and cat. I also have my gamefiles modded but with only spritesheet replacers/retexures. Here is my save file.

 

Hey Monteso, I've been taking a look. And, you're right this is really weird. My best guess is the modded farm map data in the save is causing issues with the vanilla game.
As you noticed it affects craftables; and seems to be only the ones to the West of your farmhouse.

Specifically in the savefile it's the 'objects' data in the section for the 'Farm'. As I could transplant that to a new save & the items would mysteriously break over there as well.
I tried comparing individual items, & modifying their data while keeping their locations in-tact to see if it was on an item-to-item basis. But, no; even items with clean code would experience the issue.

I also noticed you had a backup file from about 20 in-game days prior; during Winter year3. That farm doesn't have the error.

Honestly, I've never come across this before; so I'm a bit lost on an exact fix. I'm wondering if there's some sort of specific order in the savefile those items need or something else I missed. But, it's a lot to sort through. And, I'm not sure if I'll be able to narrow it down further or provide an exact fix.


But, in the meantime; I tried borrowing the Object data from your old savefile and placed it into your current one. Then I went over, and tried updating some of the key items(sprinklers/chests/etc), in an effort to get them as close to your original Spring-year4 game. It works, but there's likely a few things different.
Hopefully, it should at least be good enough for you to continue playing without that craftables being destroyed.

 

Tried the file now and its working fine. Shame we couldn't find the cause of the problem. Thanks for all your help.
