Steps to reproduce
  1. Open Build mode menu, randomly choose a build mode helper and set dimensions
  2. Centre the build mode anywhere except the core

The build helper is locked to the core (upon session restart it resets)
P.S. Applies to each individual type of build helper, eg. using ellipsoid then activating circle does not trigger the bug)

This also applies to stations. Instead of the core, it locks to the origin block.

For anyone subscribed to this task, you can still move the build helper by using an other bug to your advantage: T242

Basically "copy" the ship core (or any other block) with an active build helper and then paste it where you want the build helper to move.

Yes I have also seen this bug. Beyond annoying as the build helper has become one of my essential tools for working with designs.

Thank you for this. This helped out a friend of mine that kept having to restart his game over and over to reset the build helper.
