How is it possible to generate only 35-40 minutes worth of base 2 building materials in 8-9 hours while base 1 generates properly?
The answer turns out to be offline progression halting as a result of C. Components draining the last bit of your available parts.
If you have parts and they get depleted by a C. Components, your building material production for base 2 is disabled.
Imagine my frustrated response when I logged in today to discover I could NOT afford compute improvements and only had 35 minutes of progress.
Whatever system or bug is responsible for the entire building material production halting as a result of having no drainable parts left, it needs to be fixed.
Imagine the poor fellow who stopped playing a month or two ago and return to discover they haven't made any base progress what so ever because they accidentally left a C. Components in there without Parts
