Thanks sausage and mash, I think that will help people (and me). It happens and I believe it is a fundamental flaw in the way the nodes are constructed in the game (map editor / random map generation engine. Yes, sadly we cannot fix things in the map editor.
The map has been play tested by me (about 100 hours and tweaked / rebalanced for a better game.
I have a new map concept I have been working on, and am play testing now for my next effort that creates a whole new start approach.
Thanks for the compliment on this one, appreciated. :)

@argent i just saw the conversation you were having and i think this could help, but im not sure as ive never tried it myself, of course it was @Charlie Brown asking for help with this but i thought id let you know anyway. (If you have an issue where your mouse is frozen on certain areas of the map, try going to your save folder and deleting "collision.dta" and "quadree.sta".) i think its a fix you can try on your saves, sadly it doesn't work on the map editor though. hopefully it helps, but also nice map and thx for helping me a couple moths ago!

Thanks. Yes, the in game map editor - not the landscape editor - should fix it. As you know you will get more control through having a local CO, rather than the cash alternative.

Hey; additionally i tried landscape through cheat menu. It seems leveling around them, multiplies the bad nodes. And when you check the height it shows "0" .

Apparently it is a random thing and can occur on the in-game map generator as well.

Charlie Brown - I am advised if you terraform with normal game editor (not landscape) it should re set the bad nodes? Let me know how you go please? I am engaging with some people on discord seeking help.

Thanks Charlie Brown. I will check it out. The shot gives me the location, although it is strange as I have built in that area without a problem.

Great map; appreciate the work but i found some ghost "red placement squares" in some places in the map. I can't be able to build anything around them. I hope the ss helps.
