Be advised


Since this morning's patch there seems to be a bug concerning Harvesters, At least Wind and Mineral personals and mediums. I went on harvester run about 30 minutes ago (6:30PM EST) and when I attempted to enter any amount of maintenance less than the amount that was already in the harvester, i recieved the message " You must put a positive amount into the harvester" or possibly non-negative amount, i cant remember. Example: there is 1000 in harvester. I attempt to put in 500. I get the above message. I put in 3000. It tells me I have successfully paid 3000 to the harvester. When I open a fresh status window, it only displays that the harvester has 2000 in it. In other words, it displays only the Difference betwen the payment you just made and the pre-existing maintenance. Could be quite a costly little bug. I logged and retried 3 times. No fix, even with a 20 minute wait between logs. Sounds like a bug to me. perhaps related in some way to the factory maintenance redeeding situation, but who knows. I am reposting this in the other artisan forums to alert them.

Wondering why I ever believed anything I was told on these boards.

They changed how this works, the number on the right now reflects howmuch will be on the harvestor when you are done, not how much you are adding.


I noted this when I had a harvestor with 3000 on it, and *added* 4000, the system reported adding 1000 not 4000.

I pointed this out on the Arch board, but I will do it again here.


When you use this interface, it now reflects the total maint. that will be in the harvestor when you are done. It no longer just adds the amount you type in. So if you put it at 3000, the total maint. will be 3000 credits.


Hope this helps.

Just use /commands for while.


I just finished visiting all 22 of my harvesters, they worked just fine


/structurestatus on my F1


/paymaintenance 1200 on my F2


/addpower 1200 on my F3



make checking harvesters breeze

Yeah that was a stealth 'fix'. That number is the total maintence in the harvester. If you put a lower number than what is already in it, it will think you are trying to remove maintenance.


Just increase the number to the total amount you want in the harvester.

well i haveto say that's fairly confusing. We have been conditioned that the nomber in thr right is how much we add, not how much there is plus xxx.

Since the patch, the maint slider now represnts the total in the pool. For example if you have 1000 in the harvester and wish to deposit another 1000, you would set the slider to 2000.
