Building question

When I select several objects and ctrl x to duplicate and advance move them, how do I then "set" them (get out of move mode) without losing the selection so that I can ctrl x again without having to select them all again?
 
I thought something was wrong, I've seen this done in tutorial videos but it's just not working for me. I can't imagine why though. I'm new to Planet Zoo but I have experience in 3d apps and SL. I'm pretty sure I'm doing this right. Odd.
 
Ran into this a time or two. Especially when editing a building or BP.
Might try just making a blueprint with those selections. Then when you're done with them, delete the BP. I hate making work around, but until they do some more patching, we have to come up with ways to force the game to work for us..lol
 
I dunno, it's not just something that comes and goes - for me at least - it's every single time. It's odd because I'm not experiencing any other bugs - at all.
 
Ok, after this last post I had the opportunity to do a lot more building. A few times I was able to copy a set of objects with ctrl x and the objects stayed selected. So it isn't all the time after all, just most of the time. I guess it is a bug, I'll wait for a fix. It's the only bug I'm experiencing and it's not exactly game-breaking, just a bit annoying :) Nothing could make me give up this game now though, I spent 5 hours just working on an entrance plaza yesterday - which I'm still not done with - and had a blast! Every time I learned a new trick I'd start over so that my build would be perfect. The precision possible in this game really makes my OCD happy :) When I was done for the day I finally turned on some atmospherics and zoomed in to eye level and moved around - my god this game is beautiful! Building in Planet Zoo is the most fun thing ever but I guess I'll have to get some animals, staff and guests sooner or later :)

I wish there was a way to experience this as an avatar walking around though. I'm not that great with the camera controls yet. I remember in JWE we could get in a sphere and drive around in first person. Something like that would be awesome.
