something invisible

Hi im playing on pg2g i got a block i cant see ive tried to log out and in but it doesnt seem to help me not sure what to do about it hope someone can help me

Ok so there are occasions when ghost blocks occur. Usually just logging will make them appear because they are due to lag, but sometimes if you remove a forge, processor, or crafting station too fast then a ghost block will appear.

See if this video will help http://youtu.be/hmC4XmFiSBo

Wow thank you :D i had this ghost door in my room, and i had to change the entire layout of my room because of this, after watching your vid, i just put some blocks behind it and sucked them trough the 'ghost door' and the path was free again, thank you very much!

This is not working for my ghost blocks. I've relogged and tried clearing everything around it but they're still there. Pretty annoying.

Sometimes it does take a bit of work to get this to work out correctly. Also I have noticed that if you force the chunk to unload for a while then it will clear out naturally when you re-enter the chunk. Still not sure why these blocks are leaving the ghost blocks around.

[TheRemyD]

After looking at your images I would recommend clearing out the forges that are touching that forge space. Then trying the trick. Likely what is happening is that the ghost block is checking to make sure a forge is within the spaces near it, and since it finds one it thinks it should still be there.

When I've successfully cleared these, I find the same thing - it can take a few tries from different angles. Sometimes I'll force a block into the spot that would be the footprint of the forge, then hop above the ghost block and pull the bottom block up. It can take some experimentation. Thanks for the reminders of the annoying bug :)

It's not just the forge, is a processor as well. I have tried from many different angles already, logged for the night, tried again today and the problem persists. I can't pull a block through it because it just puts the cursor on the processor ghost block, which I can't pull, no matter the angle

Hi tiggerriffik,

If you don''t mind sharing the name of your world, I could come visit and see if I can clear the blocks. I've had luck getting them to clear before.
