so ive been working on the forest on my mod map, and it was going fine for a few days then suddenly while im placing trees i can place two or three trees then it places and deselects the tree. when im adjusting placement manually it moves in short bursts and stops. im assuming i activated a feature without knowing it. i would appreciate any help you can give me.

Quickest fix would be to delete the editor preferences by removing/renaming the editor.xml file. On Windows it's located in %localappdata%\GIANTS Editor 64bit 8.2.0

If you want to work out what changed, in case you do it again, you could rename the original and compare the differences, and copy things back a few at a time :)

sounds like something a troll would say but nice try

No, not a troll. It really is a thing (I had to do it when the editor config got corrupted and wouldn't load any i3d). It just makes the editor fire up as if for the first time, with default settings (it'll recreate the file). If that fixes your problem, you know it was a setting you changed. If it doesn't fix it, you can just put back your renamed/moved editor.xml file (make sure editor is closed first) and it'll be back to how it was.

ok thanks i will try that

How did you go? Did it solve the problem for you, and/or did you keep investigating to see what the specific setting was that was upsetting it, so future readers can just change that setting back :)
