#[0.0.9-rc4] Crystal Generator refuses to work.

Crystal Generator glitches and does not work even though it has a shape and paint available. (Perhaps after a long idle time awaiting paint with shapes queued?)

  • Replacing the unit solves the problem.
  • Replacing the platform solves the problem.
  • Reloading the savegame DOES NOT solve the problem.

Pictures show "all units broken" / "bottom left unit replaced" / "whole platform replaced".

Savegame available if it helps.

Can you share the savegame? (You can DM me if you do not want to share it publically.) Since reloading the save does not fix it, I could try to reproduce it that way.
We are taking a look at the crystal generator and see what the issue might be.

There is a inefficiency bug but this seems to be unique and I am unable to reproduce it on my end. Appreciate the help. 🙂

I just tried again and the generators are still stuck on the savegame. Is there any other info that could help? Also I'm posting the savegame here if anyone else wants to try reproducing this with their config. The screenshot is from a 2x2 platform just SW of the vertex.

Oh wow I can see the issue in the savegame. Thanks a lot for sharing.
I cannot tell what is wrong but the devs are going to have a look at it asap.

What exactly was the problem? I may have run into a similar issue. When the color switches, sometimes I get to a situation where all the crystal generators are low on paint (below the threshold to trigger crystal generation), while all the catchers have paints of colors different from the one that is in the crystal generators, unable to feed the pipes. If the space pipes have the right paint, then clearing enough catchers with "o" will get the whole platform going again. Let me know if this is the issue you're seeing, if not, I will file a separate bug report.

Also, even if the whole platform doesn't deadlock, some catchers can get permanently stuck with the "wrong" color, resulting in reduced throughput until the situation is cleared by draining all the crystal generators or switching the intended color back to what the catchers are holding.

Ok thanks to lightfoot I can now reliably reproduce this bug. Just select a working crystal generator and clear contents. It does not start working again. Also tried this on a fresh game with godmode on and the result is the same.
