The automatic construction stopped working

[Mega Zord]

What it says on the tin. My construction ships just stopped auto building. It will work when I tell them to build there but not on its own just like if it was off. Anyone know whats happening?

version? mods? Borders missing? Do you have the ore needed?

Latest: Gigastructural engineering mod and nothing else but the dlc, Yes I have resources and open resources that need mines/outposts.

Are they in cohesive systems? From experience auto build doesn't work if the ship is in systems made with the EHOF.

Are you the origin that has jump drives?

Got the same issue, though for me it is clearly the size.
I have close to 600 systems, and thus the pathfinding probably got a bit borked for them. It does seem to work if I set them near the objective and then set to automatic.

Another thing that can happen is, that other construciion ships have already queued the order, even if that one is at the other end of your Imperium and needs 2 years to arrive a that location.

EDIT: Also, sometimes they stop building some things. A prominent one is Observation Stations which they flat-out refuse. But in my current game, they don't seem to want to build a research station for astral rifts (but that may just be an issue of low priority).

They dont auto build everything. They never did the Observation posts.
