I was just trying to change the fence and gate around The Old Salt House when this started happening. It doesn't matter what fence I used or what gate I used, it looked like the gate was just invisible. Then I zoomed out and saw the gate way high in the air. I tried to place it again while I was zoomed out and it looked like it vanished again, only for me to see it even higher in the air after zooming out more. I tried to find another post to put this on, but couldn't find one that described the same thing.

@SportsGirls2042 Have you been using moveObjects `? There's this issue that looks similar: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/N-DS-INPUT-A-SV-Gate-removes-fences/td-p/8006531/ although I'm not sure if the gate actually appeared in the air for these users.

Think there was also a thread with the door going higher and higher any time you click on it but I need to look for the thread for that tomorrow.

I did see that one when I was looking, but the fence doesn't disappear or stay disappeared. If I delete the gate, it all looks normal again. And I don't know about the moving door one - it sounds like it could be similar, but the gate only moves up when I try to move it or place it again and it just keeps moving up just past where I've zoomed. I did have moveobjects on, but turning it off was the first thing I did and it didn't fix it. It's not the end of the world or anything, I just thought it was weird and had never found anything like it. I've repaired my game since (the whole left/right arrow keys thing makes me do that all the time), but the gate is still being weird, so I have no idea.

@SportsGirls2042 So I found the thread: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/NEEDS-INPUT-Doors-ascending-in-build-buy-every-time-they-re/td... .. it's an older issue and doesn't have any traffic for a while though
