Players in Elite Dangerous have reported an issue preventing the placement of Tier 2 and Tier 3 planetary constructions. Attempts to deploy structures like the Dodecahedron around water worlds or additional Tier 2 bases near existing orbital constructions are being blocked by the game. This problem surfaced shortly after recent server maintenance, suggesting a possible operational bug affecting base building mechanics. The issue restricts commanders focused on planetary colonization and infrastructure expansion, limiting gameplay options until resolved.

  • Placement attempts fail on water worlds and Earth-like planets with existing orbital structures.
  • Issue appeared following recent server maintenance, hinting at a technical fault.
