Can't Place Workbench
Reaching out my feelers to the whole community for help!
I've already reported this through the official support site, but I wanted to ask the community to find out if this was a known issue/bug and how to resolve it, if there's a quick fix - I searched and couldn't find any relevant results, either on here, or on the support site.
So, after 3000+ hours in survival not trying to get into the more "advanced" systems like the crafting system, I finally survived long enough to feel comfortable with attempting it. So, I tear down the workbench in the Broken Railroad warehouse, gather the cedar, build the Furniture Workbench, place it, get more cedar, build the regular replacement Workbench. Then, I go into the Furniture Workbench's Container to "deploy" the workbench, and when I do that, it brings me back to the Safehouse Customization screen as if it wants me to place the workbench somewhere. Great!
The only problem is - there's no workbench to place. I have the interface, but see no "red" or "green" workbench to place anywhere! I click anywhere onscreen, and it makes the "plop" noise as if I had placed it, but it's not anywhere. Then, when I go to check the Furniture Workbench container - it's back in there!
Please see the video below, and ignore the audio, my mic was bad and I was just saying what I wrote here already.
So... is this a known bug/quirk? If so, is there a workaround, or do I need to wait for support to get back to me to resolve it!

Buggy Screen?
Has anyone ever gotten "stuck" on this cooking/item pickup screen? I have once before, and I just got stuck for a second time. It sucks, because NONE of the buttons in the bottom right does anything when this happens. You can't hit "Esc" to get out of the menu either. You basically can't do anything that I could find but Alt-F4 and quit - losing all the progress you'd made since the last time you'd rested/entered/exited a zone.
Frustrating! The worst thing is that I have no clue what causes it! Except that it's always when I'm trying to cook things really fast. I wonder if it's a glitch from flipping between menus and objects too quickly... perhaps I'm too fast for the UI??

Does anyone know why my CoPilot is stuck in "Agent" Mode?
Also, I still have credits, yet when I ask it a request, it just tells me what it "is going to do", but then doesn't do it. I tell it "go ahead", assuming it's asking permission, and it just tells me what it's going to do again... seems... broken?

Why does EVERY battery manufacturer have their own unique form factor for their batteries that is NOT interchangeable?? Why can't they have a standard like USB is for computer peripherals?

Stupid Question about Lorien/Sheridan
So... if Lorien gave Sheridan "20 years", why would he stick around earth?
​
Why wouldn't he go live on like the Pak'ma'ra homeworld, where one of their years is the same as three earth years?
​
Then he could have had another 60!!!

Request - Hallucination Blacklist
Please see the attached screenshot. When I'm attempting to "Apply" CoPilot suggestions in Visual Studio, often times it will have hallucinations, like suggesting multiple code changes when the CoPilot text response only shows one, and /or wanting to delete HUGE chunks of existing code arbritrarily (see #1 in the screenshot).
While I realize that it's an imperfect AI, and it will make mistakes, I would like it if there would be a function sitting alongside the "Tab to accept Alt+Del to discard F8 go to next" helper (#2 in the screenshot) that would allow you to press a key and mark the suggested change as a hallucination, so that you NEVER see that hallucination ever again. There must be some way to make this happen, either with a local database on the client side, or at the very LEAST just a config file that can be constantly updated. Then the CoPilot portion that actually suggests the code changes can use it as a reference and ignore any "blacklisted hallucinations".
Thinking pseudo-code wise (since I have no idea what code or language CoPilot uses), there should be a way during runtime to have some sort of List or Dictionary of HashSet that can be loaded, updated, and stored locally (so that it can be deleted or manually modified if desired).
This way the human coder's brain can assist the AI in assisting them!!!
I've also requested this over at the Microsoft Developer's forum on their official website and on the GitHub website itself. Hopefully that will make some movement!
