May related to T925 ; with some blocks the yellowish overlay cause some transparency issue in build mode with the remove mode cursor. We can see background like if there were a hole in the structure (i.e. black hull block).
Here a gif :
And fews pictures :
But it don't seems affect all blocks (i.e. the white hull block).
I didn't took screen but blocks like small cactus render like disappear when overlay by the remove cursor (we don't see the object inside the cube).
You only get this when using "Preview block to build". It basically still renders "preview block to build" which is transparent. But since it renders above another block in this case, you get Z-fighting.
Fix should be to disable Preview block to build when using remove, copy/paste and build helper mode.

-Confirmed-
It's not really a transparency issue here. You only get this when using "Preview block to build". It basically still renders "preview block to build" which is transparent. But since it renders above another block in this case, you get Z-fighting.
Fix should be to disable Preview block to build when using remove, copy/paste and build helper mode.
-QA Testing-
Can only notice some Z-fighting when in construct mode and looking at non cubic blocks, usually it ends up somewhere different but that's another issue, would also belong under the transparency issue task.
Other than that, fix confirmed.
