#Resource collectors not working for repairs

I'm in a creative game with free-build off and I wanted to see if I can use the resource collectors to grab materials that are in range of the sun so that the crew can use them and repair but instead the resource collectors do their animation yet the resources don't move then the crew fly over to grab the materials ending up with some of them dying from the sun.

even if I just set the ship to grab the resources manually the crew fly off and try to grab it until the resource collectors fully power on and grab all the resources which sometimes ends up in crew dying

and here most of the resources have been grabbed but they are trying to fly into the sun and grab more

and here is the main issue where on repairs it will try to collect materials yet the materials stay in place until a crew tries to get it (but they just run into the sun and die)

this has happened on materials that are very close by as well so I doubt it is a range issue, when I do it with materials that aren't in the sun the same thing happens until the crew comes over to grab the material

Could you please upload a save file where this is happening? You should be able to find save files at %userprofile%/Saved Games/Cosmoteer/[steam ID]/Saved Games.

I'm not sure if this is another bug or somthing but I keep trying to sync but It doesn't seem to work

That's an issue with steam. Sometimes launching the game will resync properly without a prompt.

I see, I'll send the saved game now

Thanks for the save file! Crew committing sudoku repeatedly I at least understand the cause of, though I have no clue what's going on with the resource collectors right now. I'll look into it.

oh hey i had this exact same problem

#

its not just repairs, they cant do any sort of construction

So it wasn't actually intended for resource collectors to even try to deliver resources to construction/repair sites, but i "fixed" it by letting them do just that.
