Randy's shack and Li's shipping shack look really weird

Yesterday I finally got my hands on building a house for Randy Adams. His default one, raised shack with a custom skin. What surprised me was that it had really weird black or grey-ish textures glitching and jumping all over the place. I've made a screenshot but it really doesn't do this thing justice, it was horrifying. I've tried moving it etc, thinking it was in a bad place, only stopped after changing the skin to a non-unique blue one.

April Li's shack starts building up then another weird thing happens, it just deconstructs instead of constructing. By the time it's done, there's nothing left but an open blue container, not even a sleeping bag. Upgrading it to level 2 then 3 doesn't change anything, it seems to build up but ends up an empty container again. This happened every single of my saves for like 5 games now. And both of them used to work at some point (a long time ago, though, on another save), so, double weird.

While on the topic of minor weird graphical things, the birds sitting on top of the pet store and I think level 3 garden (been a while since I built that one) don't have any textures, they're always plain purple. Which looks kinda cool, actually. And both command tent and field hospital from Apocalyptic Additions are entirely purple, no tent textures.
 
Last time it happened was in the Slog, no water in sight, I think it was dirt foundation. When it last worked properly (long ago) that was in Nordhagen with sand foundation. Or maybe it was wood, I generally use sand there though. Can't remember if it was near water or not, gotta test again.
