Build helper stuck

[kikaha]

hello !

I came accross that problem twice now.

When using the build helper- first time the elipsoid second time the circle- the ability to position it where i want is not possible the second time around.

I mean, first i draw a circle or elipsoid, select where its origin is and build. The problem arise when i want to draw a second circle or elipsoid. I cannot change the origine of the build helper shape. It center on the ship core and there is nothing i can do to change that. i tried switching to other shapes, they work fine but coming back to the shape i used first always gives me no option but to center/origin the shape at the ship core.

Only way around this is to relaunch the game.

T1387 Build Helper Lock
This is about ships, but it also applies to station.

temporary fix: USE ANOTHER BUG!

once your second build helper is locked-in on the first helper's location, "copy' a single block, and "paste" that single block to the new origin position.

-->whever you pate, build helper origin moves to the pasted position. Not the BEST way to work, but it beats going through 3 loading screens for every helper change.
