After I place one item the next item I select won't place, it flips back to where it was previously, or is carries around by my mouse indefinitely. I found by clicking a different tool across the top...

Cant place/Delete items in Build mode

This bug was on the old forums with a lot of reports, but I can't find it here.
This sounds similar to this bug, but it's not.
With this bug, you may build for a while and then all of a sudden, your fountain (for example) won't place. No matter what you do, nothing will place. selecting another tool won't fix it.
If you try to save or go to manage worlds, you ALWAYS will get an endless saving/loading screen.
This bug can also occur on a specific lot. The "The Old Salt House" lot in San Myshuno was a problem for me every time I loaded into the lot and tried to build. It would never go through. It happened right away.
This specific lot may not be a problem for everyone. Once, I had the same issue for a lot in Brindleton Bay, but with an update, that lot wasn't having that issue anymore.
I had this happen many of times and I believe it started with the patch before For Rent.
Here's the link I have for the old forum, I don't know if anyone will have access to it though: https://t.co/4xoNY24q7n
More info: I have all the packs and I'm on the latest update.

I use CC and Mods, but I can ensure you that's not the issue.
I had this issue yesterday as well and I waited for 10 minutes before force quitting. Video attached below.

DeeliciousSims tested your save (that lot you said) and have no issues. Placed about an dozen items and was able to leave the lot fine.
Maybe this is what you're seeing Items disappear when placing in build mode | EA Forums - 4976886 ?

It randomly happens, so it's hard to recreate.
For the specific lot, it could be different for every person and every save. I gave my building save where it happened more recently.
I don't know what causes it. In the video I attached, I never built on that lot before, and I was building for 47 minutes.
I did look at that report, but this issue isn't the same. There's no way of getting out of it or pressing a tool to then complete the action. You will always have to force quit.

Ah sorry. I was under the impression it happens always on that lot for you.

Why did my post get moved?
This isn't the issue I'm having. There not related at all and different.
I really wished the Archived Bug Reports didn't get removed because then you could see more reports of thing I'm talking about.
