Hey!

Thank you for your bug report. after investigating the issue, it appears i found the cause.
When a building is placed over-top another existing building (due to fog of war) and thus cancelled, the existing building even after being destroyed causes its tile to permanently cancel other buildings.
In the game you provided grey placed its TC on top of the outpost, because he had not scouted the outpost yet. Then once he realised the TC was cancelled, he placed it slightly off to the side. later he destroyed the tower but the bugged tile remains.

So thanks and we are now tracking this issue
