I experience this just about every time I place anything down. Started to have to place something then immediately look towards the sky so I don't punch it. Gets really annoying when trying to place crops and instantly break the seeds or when placing wooden frames because I can't pick them back up when they are damaged. I really hope they get this fixed.
Same, as long as it's the last of a stack, or the only item, such as a stack of frames or when you place a campfire. Thought it was my controller being screwy at first, quickly discovered that wasn't the case.
this isnt your fault, it is the game overriding a slow mechanic, like if u push click to faster after the first one is done, you goes to the 2nd punch u get used to not doing pretty quick
