It is extra confusing, as cloning the design from an existing blueprint doesn't have this problem. (I do this all the time, as I only rarely deconstruct to design)
(yes, yes, yes, I'm aware you all want to get rid of blueprints, that does not negate the simple fact that cloning the design from a blueprint doesn't have the problem)

F1 + G still doesn't work for me. It's just open the System's check menu like if I pressed G alone.

Regarding the typos, don't forget the "aliens species". You're wanting the word alien, as otherwise you've got a double plural, and that just looks/sounds wrong unless you're speaking of Fish, Moose, Sheep, and the handfull of other critters that have a plural-by-default name.

Just chiming in for extra info, it's a bug with slot 1 on the hotbar.

It isn't happening just on conversion to new chunks.

It's seems turn worse, now 1 full block of empty space is enough to make the >plumes to disappear.

The entire problem appears to stem from AI controlled turrets being allowed to use the standard "vision cone" of the player as their shot aim.

I'm rather certain that isn't a bug. It mirrors real world thrust.
