Question Old Chem Yard plot can’t be removed

Have a problem where I have a chem yard plot that I built in an older version of conqueror there was an update that fixed a lighting error with the burning barrel. If I scrap the plot the items on the shelves and barrels won’t disappear. Also refreshing the plot yields the same results. I can use the console to manually disable all the little items but if I disable the burning barrel it leaves an orb of light that can’t be disabled. Is there anyway around this problem or am I just stuck with this plot where it is?
 
Hmmm, someone might have a better solution for you, but I believe that at the *very least* you could use place anywhere's feature...i think it's called 'extra object selection' or something and I think you toggle it by hitting the 'insert' key. Maybe it wouldn't be able to get that point of light though...

I guess you could put a lamp there? :/

Hopefully someone has a better idea of how to super-refresh the plot or something.
 
Thanks for the replies I had already tried extra object selection didn’t work good idea though, the problem is I can’t disable/markfordelete this light source when I click on it there’s no ID. I think the problem is due to this particular plot having been changed in a previous patch to fix that light source, but I believe in the patch notes for that fix it says to simply refresh the plot. That doesn’t work though. I added some pics to show the light source I’m talking about. It’s not really a big deal I’m just wondering if anything can be done, or if there’s a way to disable it that I haven’t thought of.

Sometimes, especially with effects, it can take a bit of clicking around to find the right spot to click to select the object. It isn't always at a case of clicking the centre of the effect. If you can find an angle without too much clutter behind, make a save, then experiment with trying to find the right one. Good luck.
