Flickering buid preview #3295

Description

Description

Switching from a smaller to a larger building while the game is paused without moving mouse or changing the buildings facing causes flickering of the build preview square.

Changing the build queue while the game is paused without moving mouse shows outdated overlap information.

Reproduction

Changing previewed building:

  1. Pause the game.
  2. Select a constructor
  3. Keep the cursor fixed over one build position and keep the same facing.
  4. Preview a 2x2 building such as wind turbine or scorpion where it overlaps an existing building or queue entry.
  5. Without moving the cursor or changing the facing, switch to a larger building such as adv botlab or experimental gantry.
  6. The build preview starts to flicker

Changing build queue

  1. Pause the game.
  2. Select a constructor
  3. Queue a Build
  4. Preview another build overlapping over the existing so it's shown partly red
  5. Change the build queue, e.g. by pressing "N", without moving the cursor or changing the facing
  6. The build preview shows the status from before the change
