Summary0001707: Designate Menu defaults to "Chop Trees" rather than "Mine".
DescriptionOdd bug I just noticed while playing: my current game's Designations menu is now defaulting to "Chop Trees", midway down the list, rather than "Mine", at the top. Quitting and reloading doesn't alter this issue.

Terribly minor issue, but I keep getting confused as to why I'm not setting mine locations.
Steps To ReproduceNot sure, I just noticed it now, but I'm positive it was defaulting to Mine yesterday.

The designations menu is location/context specific.

The best way I can describe it is as follows.

Outside, the menu defaults to chop trees.
Inside, the menu defaults to dig.

I think the inside/outside designation is determined by the position of your cursor at the start of the process.

Does this account for the behaviour that you are experiencing?

Yeah. Total derp on my part. Forgot I'd channeled out some stuff, and the cursor was starting in the channel zone.

No problem, glad I could explain it and that it's not another bug!
