Additional info: This can be fixed by a god typing *clearlostbuildings.

This bug is really annoying :].. I've been thru the code over and over again and cant find an explanation for this problem so far.
I've tidied a few things related to the demolish routines, which i suppose, theoretically, might fix something.. tho i couldnt quite tell you why :].

The fact the bug is intermittent (demolish works normally for me (and everyone else, i gather) 99% of the time, so debugging it is difficult. If anyone can find a repeatable way of getting this to happen, please let me know.

Otherwise.. 0.49.6 server might fix this anyway..

I got this bug just renectly but If any1 asksl where and how...I have no comment at this time...It could lead to something bad for me, I just know it.
I hate this pesky bug too! So Annoying.

I had it 3 times so far.
I've bought and demolished about 30 buildings so it's more like 10% chance of it happening on Zion.

Can you think of or find any commonality on those occasions when it happens? Something that could make it replicable?
There might be no common link, but if, say, it always happens if you set the sell price (or something) just before demolishing that might help track it down.
Or indeed it might already be fixed.. :]

The only possible commonality would be that I always take invest and stocks out before I demolish

I think what happen to me was that I bought a bunch of buildings of 1 type and got the max # of types of building and then demolish 1 bought another 1 demolish it and bought another 1. And after doing that 3-5 times I tpye *showowned djaj88 and it shhowed I owned 1 building that I already had demolish.

on sabrada, it seems most buildings i *goto and .destroy become ghosted

ding.. think i've finally found it. Thanks for all the extra info.
Should be fixed in the public 0.49.6 release.
