Cannot place door in doorframe.
Bug Reproduction:
- Build a doorframe
- Select door to place in doorframe
- Door will not snap into place and states “must be attached to an appropriate slot in an existing building”

- Jiggle around some more and the ghost will turn green and will be able to place or unequip then requip hammer or choose another piece and then choose door
This happens with all tiers and frequently. The problem with this is while there are workarounds, it’s frustrating to get this error so frequently. Sometimes those workarounds do not immediately work either.

I realize little building things like this have always been in the game in one shape or form. However, it stands to reason that if I can place something, in front, on top of, next to or inside of in a particular order, shouldn’t there be no order? Especially if stability is not a requirement. And in some cases, some of the functionality of placing in any order had previously been fine. If accidentally removing a piece and it requires you to take down an entire section just to allow the stability to be increased or a certain aesthetic, this can be entirely frustrating. Not to mention the act of building itself requires foreknowledge of certain steps…
This issue is pre-existing.
