[DUP][6.0 Beta 2] Defend Position markers can't be shift dragged

[Wultan]

The new Defend Position markers can't be shift dragged to move them vertically.

BTW: The area for defend position, collect loot and attack all enemies in range should be a infinit length cylinder and not a sphere. Because a cylinder is intuitiv expected when looking at the 2D projection called map.

The first part would be a beta issue if that was working in that way in the previous release version. Do you have a link to a vanilla save that shows the issue for dev testing please?

The second part is a gameplay suggestion and does not belong here. Neither does it appear to be very sensible if you don't want your ships disappearing for ages going far too high or low from the desired central origin. It would also be complicated and not at all 'intuitive' if you had tilted the map plane. Searches and positional defence, etc should always just have an origin and a radius in 3D.

Don't think a save would help.
I can shift drag other things like ships destination. Only the defend position markers don't do it.

My suggestion concerns precisely the movement of the marker. This is a possible solution for the bug I reported.

This has ben requested in the [Feedback]Defend Position Feedback thread that is pinned at the top of this forum.
