Sometimes when you try to infest, you can't do it. It's a bug introduced in b175, and has an easy workaround. Simply select a drifter and try to build somewhere ... make sure you get the ghost structure of a building showing. Abort.
Now you can infest.
Notice that if you get the bug, you must logout first, then login, try to build, THEN infest...

Another indicator youhave the bug is that you can't select anything, you have to drag a selection box over something to highlight it. It won't let you click on it.
