    I had two big glitches at the same time:

    A few dozen blocks I had just placed all disappeared. They did NOT follow a lag-related pattern (i.e. they were not the three dozen most recently placed blocks). Rather, they were a seemingly random selection of recently placed blocks. Some stayed put, some disappeared. Older blocks were not affected that I know of so far.


    Also, a player was inside an enclosed area of my build at the same time. I have no reason to think they did anything wrong -- except there was no way that I know of for them to have gotten into it.

    Anyway... reporting.

    Sometimes blocks just don't register as being placed but your client thinks they are. It's lag.

    Except then, after I fixed them all, I tp'd to my vault and back and found this:



    I'm familiar with block lag... building large projects is all I do. This feels like something different.

    Not sure if this is even related but this seams like something is wrong with rising map so.. I noticed ever since the lwc wipe when flying around my screen freezes a sec then un freezes happens every few mins or so when flying around. Its only on ecc this happens monkeybutt had the same issue i will record this and make a post if needed.

    I remember back when I was a new player I got upset because I went through a whole stack of stone bricks and tried to place them, but they all just disappeared and did not come back in my inventory even when I relogged. Probably the same glitch? But it hasn't happened to me ever since.

    Is there a reliable way to prevent it from happening? It's kind of annoying to have pieces of a build unpredictably disappear during a build comp. Is there something I can do which will make it less likely?

    Only thing that fixed it for me was to wait until anti cheat was fixed

    Place blocks slower, and don't hold the place button down is my recommendation.
