[Resolved] Can't build certain objects?
After a hiatus from the game, I encountered a bug that isn't letting certain objects show up (like buoy wall decorations from Far Harbor, but some of them work). They don't appear red or green, they simply cease to preview, and makes it impossible to build them.

Has anyone crossed paths with this?

My build meter is not full.
Other than "Lore Friendly Posters" and "Spring Cleaning" mods, I have no mod related in any way to the build mode.

I am often unable to build bars and restaurants. For those i often have to walk around the workshop area in search for a spot to build them, then pick them up to reposition them where i want them.

I think it's likely one of your mods. I found that after the DLC that added weapon racks that I couldn't see them at first because of the Better Stores mod. I updated it and the conflict was removed.
One of your decoration mods is probably taking up some reference point or what not that content in the game wants to use.
To debug you can try disabling everything then re enabling one by one.

Oh you mean you find them in the menu but not see them to place? Wierd. Still start by disabling mods to see if that fixes it.

Or in my case i assume its..that those shops usually dont fit indoors. I am used to build two story areas in my houses with no roof and floor in the middle to create halls, high enough for all kind of shops. But if the game only registers i am under a roof or ontop of a floor it probably removes those shops completly from the present workshop offer.

Thanks for the advice, folks. It didn't turn out to be a mod issue or specifically a building location related one, though.

While experimenting the issue, I noticed that after I scrapped some steel around my settlement, I could build any available objects again. For some odd reason, even though I clearly had all the necessary components (absolute bare minimum though) to build some of these things, it simply wouldn't let me build them.

Simply replenishing my components seemed to fix the issue.
