oil well bug
So my oil well is disappearing for no reason. It's working fine, the backpressure is around 30%, and then poof, it literally just disappears in a cloud of natural gas (it leaves behind some natural gas when it disappears). Also the metal used to make the oil well drops on the ground like I deconstructed it, but I definitely did not order that.

One moment it's there, the next moment it's gone. I haven't tried rebuilding the oil well yet to see if it happens again, but I guess I'll do that later and see what happens.

Building melting is instant action. The animation of splashing melted liquid is very quick. Tiles however have a dedicated animation showing that are close to melt.

This is not a bug.

Did you build it out of lead?

I just checked and yeah it was. So it's melting? I thought there was some kind of melting animation. Do all buildings just disappear like that when it gets too hot?

It would be helpful if there was some kind of alert about that like when buildings overheat

I know there is an alert for when the building takes overheat damage, I meant it would be helpful to have a separate alert for when a building melts because if you don't realize that's what happened then it looks like your building just disappeared.

You wrote "It would be helpful if there was some kind of alert about that like when buildings overheat" not when it melts. Overheat is not the same as melting. The game distinguish this from each other.
EDIT: oh, now I see what you ment. You said alert like overheat. Sorry, my English skills are again proven to not be so good ;-)

Feel free to send the devs a suggestion about melting alert.

You can also make your own system using temperature sensor + automated notifier.
