I'm currently working on a random map and ran into a problem with my buildings.
I changed the Terran sensor towers so that it has to be built ontop of a destructible debris (1x1).
Now this works well appart from the error 'Must place on an active vespene geyser' that I get when I try to build it off of the debris.
The main problem is that, when a sensor tower completes contruction, you can build another sensor tower on the same place.
So every time it finishes construction, you can just build a new one ontop of it, over and over again.
The pathing footprint and the footprint placement are both on the standard Footprint 1x1.
I've also tried remaking the refinery footprint for 1x1, but this gives the same problem.
Is there anyone that has any clue why this is happening ?
The alert sound can be changed, but it will change for placing real vespene mines too. It's an Alert_CantBuildHere or so in the Sound data tab.
How did you allow building on the debris? Did you accidentally set "Behavior - Built On" for the Sensor Tower to include sensor towers?
Post a demo map so we can see what you've done so far (and if you don't have this modded tower on a standalone demo map create one from scratch, that might even eliminate the error)
Only the debris is in the Behavior - Built On.
I'm remade the building in a demo map and it has the same problem.
Just use the scv to build a sensor tower on one of the debris.
You'll be able to build a 2nd one ontop of it, even before it finishes building.
Greetings,

check the collision it should say structure and ground but i haven't tried anything with the vespene geyser so im not sure
My sensor tower has: Burrow, Ground, Scructure, Unused Land 07 and Unused Land 09
My debris has: Burrow, Ground, Scructure and Unused Land 07
also tried adding 09 to the debris
