Using the deconstruct/build tool over the nightly save creates a huge number of job across the map

When issuing build/dig/deconstruct commands across the autosave that happens at the end of each cycle, it can sometimes trigger a gigantic build/dig/deconstruct across a large area. See attached video for example.


Steps to Reproduce

There's no simple reproduction steps for this. I've had it happen rarely (but never to the size in the attached video), I've seen it happen on other player's streams rarely. As seen in the video, I start to issue a click+drag dig command as the autosave kicks in. Once it completes, it believes I ended the dig far off to the bottom right, well past the edge of the screen.




User Feedback


This bug just happened to me big time. A massive number of unwanted dig orders were created across every discovered planet.

I've had this quite a few times but not this bad... I got the bug using Deconstruct on my 2nd planet and it carried over to the 1st... I cancelled on the deconstructs on the 2nd planet and kept playing. About ~40 cycles later I got a broken building notice, switched back to my main planet and saw that apparently the bug carried over to this planet as well. Now I'm going to have to spend 50+ cycles fixing everything. Since autosaves only go 10 saves back... I'm just so thrilled... The bug has been around for who knows how long and now it's getting worse?... How is this not a priority?
