    I used the bulldozer tool on a building and it didn't complete demolition, so now it's stuck there with that little deletion meter with the red bar half way through and I can't get rid of it.

    What to do?

    Have you tried to click on the building then use the delete key?

    Try placing something over it.
    Exit, clear cache and reload?

    If it doesn't work, ask brendonwright, he had the same problem. Not sure if he fixed it or not though.

    Nope didn't work. Damn this is annoying. Maybe someone can work on a fix if I'm not the only one that's had this problem?

    The reason it happened to brendonwright was because he demolished the building but before it finished he quit the game. I'd say it's a very rare thing. Yours is only the second time I've heard of it.

    I tried to emulate what happened to Brendon and it never happened for me.

    I have must come across a similar problem. I created some map road/highway connectors. Now no matter what I try I can not delete them. Pain in the butt. I'm thinking its related to the custom map boot leg river, also usually maps end but this map has 1024x1024 of just water added to it.
    Will post another screenshot soon, here is the first of road connections not deleting.

    Here is a screenshot of bootleg river map - whats with all the extra water to the right?

    The Lake On The Plain map has that extra water, so all custom maps that use that map will be the same. Same goes with trees.

    If you manage to click them somehow you can then press the delete button and get rid of them. You should be able to somehow.

    ctrl + print
    then go back to your desktop and post it into a photoediting software of your choice (for e.g. paint)

    ctrl + print caputres a screenshot to your clipboard, so you need another program (paint or similar)
    open this program, press ctrl + v and save it wherever you want
