    It's so annoying to replace blocks like hull blocks with lights and the light is currently off when you replace it and have to manually turn it on. I don't like this. Can we please have the lights be ON when we replace something like a hull block for a light? Thanks :)

    Are you using the replace tool?

    I'd assume he was, since the described behavior perfectly describes what happens when I used the replace tool to change a wall of armor into a wall of lights. (was making an engine the ghetto way)

    That sounds like a bug since its inconsistent with the way you place a normal light. Have to agree on this one.
