"Building is not Allowed Here"

[Croms_Faithful]

Ok folks I have now received some clarification from Ignasis in a seperate thread. And while it seems to be bad news, I cannot be 100% sure. Here is what he had to say.

@Ignasi

Hey @Croms_Faithful

Most of these things you’re describing are the results of exploit fixes released since Update 2.0 and therefore included in the 2.3 console update.
Building inside dungeons, or outside the green wall, for instance, has been fixed as part of anti-exploit measures.
In particular (ommitted the lines that don’t apply):

@Hugo

• Fixed a number of unintended locations where players could build.

[…]

• Fixed a number of out-of-boundaries locations where players could build structures.
  […]
• Disallowed building inside caves where it was not initially intended.

Regarding this point:

@Croms_Faithful

This message has also begun to appear at some players bases.

If these player bases were found in any of the fixed locations, their structures are not destroyed, but no other placeables or structures can be added.

There are currently no plans to add a setting override for these exploit restrictions.

However, as I explained to Ignasis, my main base is my primary base is not located outside of the Cursed Wall, or inside a cave or a dungeon. It is along the banks of the River Biome, in a rather ordinary location. It is in close proximity to a now despawned Exiles camp, approximately 4-5 foundations away diagonally in distance. However, as I will further elaborate in the following post, and as my screen shots have illustrated, the problem not just being unable to build there, but recognition of ownership there is extremely sporadic and confusing.
