#2x powerless hauling drones in idle, not moving

I have 2x Cargo Drone Reconfiguration Modules in the basement level, just next to the main elevator. I've set both modules on 0 hauling drones, but 2 drones did not return to standard drones (you can also see that those modules cannot be demolished).
You can find those 2 hauling drones on the top side level, one is stuck in the medium solar panels field, and the other one is next to the Small Vehicle Assembly Facility.

Hope this helps !

Hello! The issue with your save is quite unusual. Could you please upload save files from about an hour before the one you’ve already shared? It would really help us see how the issue develops and possibly identify the cause of the idle drones.

let me check, i played like this for a while so autosaves are maybe not going that much in the past ...

#

no, my oldest save is already "infected" with this problem πŸ™

austere raven
#

you can find the latest one stuck here

#

so from the first save I posted, I ordered 10 drones to be reconfigured as hauling drones, I continued playing and at some point I noticed this guy stuck between storages.

Hello! We've encountered some reeeeeally strange things here
Somehow you managed to drop resources right inside the cliff, which is unpassable for drones and not suited for building

This causing some of your drones "wanting to go there and pick up these resources, but I can't" and they got stuck

If you can help us to understand how exactly you did it, we'd really appreciate it

Ok, i manged to find this in that spot you marked, but I have no idea how I managed to do that πŸ™‚
I don't remember trying to build there something, is it possible that when I failed a contract, that by accident, the transport would drop the cargo there ? I'm not sure how I can help you since I didn't intentionally tried to build there πŸ™

#

I can see that directly bellow is my crew quarters, could those materials got stuck when I was building/destroying rooms/modules in the basement ?

hasty condor
#

I doubt that's because of transport, it's impassable for it too
Buuut, that's interesting remark about crew quarters, gonna look through it

austere raven
#

I just went through the modules and nothing costs only 8x iron and 1x modular frames, it's strange that it shows exactly 2x that same combination.

#

But anyway, if I can be of any other assistance, feel free to ping me.

austere raven
#

Could I ask you if you can clean up this save and send it back so I can continue without more drones wanting to get those stuck mats ?

hasty condor
#

I'll try to do that, but I can't guarantee that it will work properly after
Do you have any save, which doesn't have this issue? Autosave or smthng like that

austere raven
#

I'm afraid not, all the autosaves are already affected πŸ™

#

Dont' waste too much time, if it cannot be done quickly forget about it, thank you

hasty condor
#

Your case is unique, so I 99% sure that it won't repeat again, you can try to begin new game
Sry for the inconvenience :C

austere raven
#

no worries, tnx

austere raven
#

hey, I'm playing a new save and I noticed that drones are traveling over un-buildable terrain, could that be connected somehow with those leftover mats inside the mountain ?

austere raven
#

I think I have a new situation with stuck hauling drones. This is a stack of 10 titanium that I bought and just dropped there to fill an order. It was a part of a bigger order, not just this 10. I failed an order because I did not notice in time that none of the drones picked it up. Then I de-programmed hauling drones back to basic drones and again 2 of them are missing, never reverted back to default drones. I tried searching for them but could not find them.

#

@hasty condor I added some new info if it helps

Hello again
As I can see they climbed up the mountainπŸ˜…
We've done a fix to that recently, after loading the save, they have returned on solid ground
Check your version pls
It should be 99.82.5
