My problem was even worse not just Rebuild status always on.
 
Immediatelly after saving dwg...
 
...an alignment, some feature lines and the corridor that is built on them were lost. Just not existing anymore in prospector and screen !
Undoing resurrected them !
 
OR
...the above mentioned alignment was visible but not existing in the prospector ! I could right click on it and handle it although it was a...ghost ! Corridor reported it as its baseline !
If my next action was...
...moving it siteless the object became visible to prospector and everything became normal !
...saving dwg again, alignment became invisible and corridor reported that had no baselines ! Totally lost. Single undo does nothing. Second undo ressurects corridor object and the graph but not the alignment object to the prospector.
 
Had to find a solution since saving and loosing them was not an option and ofcourse keeping it open until a solution was found in the future is impossimble (on the way to madness and what could i say to my supervisors expecting from me to finish just a simple job)
 
I was lucky enough to find out that setting the alignment to whatever site, new or existing with whatever name is the caution to loose it and the corridor that is attached to it and also the feature lines.
 
Moving to site none (siteless) , rebuilt status clears after rebuilding and saving works fine !
 
I attach the dwg. First import in an empty dwg the also zipped subassemblies and then open the dwg.
The objects i mentioned above are...
alignment named...EDL002B240_TKV
corridor named...EDL002B240_TKV
feature lines...both siteless
Try move them to existing site or a new one and then rebuild. Rebuild status remains on whatever i do.
Finally try saving dwg twice.

Visual studio 2017, autoCAD 2017, edit & continue

I am so happy !
Just realised that installing Service Pack 1 to autoCAD or Civil 3D 2017, it is possible to use full Edit & Continue with MS Visual studio 2017 community edition !!!

FULL Edit & Continue !!! By its exact meaning !!!
No workarounds, no Visual Studio extra settings.
Not just view variables.
Allowed to hit new breakpoints while running.
Allowed to change code.
Autocad loading and running absolutely fine.
Must be dreaming !!!
