Thread: The wierdest resource shift..

I was out of town for the past few weeks, and because of that, I planned ahead with maintenance.


The first couple weeks went OK, but then a week ago, I was in for a day, so I logged in and ran around and put power and maint in all my harvesters to last until I got back.


A decent copper popped up that had a 900+oq and a 950+cond. I wanted some so I changed the harvesters that had decent efficiencies for this copper. I also tracked down a close 68% source. I planted a large and a few mediums at that source. I had a 30% source on 3 small harvesters that I have been using for a long time from someone elses account, so I set those as well.


This is where it got wierd. I returned Sunday evening and went to visit the harvesters. The new ones I planted at the 68% source were doing very well. They now had a 82% source! The smalls that were on the 30% source were still running strong on a 0% source! and in 7 days had managed to harvest about 700 units each! The other harvesters that were on acceptable sources ranged from 36% to 80%, and I know they did not exceed 50% when I changed them.


I have seen resources shift hundreds of times, but I have never seen a resource shift and not go away..


Has anyone else seen anything like this?


(btw, it was the 30% smalls that gave it away, because I never would have noticed that the ones I planted had increased so much.. but there is no way I would have ran some harvesters on a zero percent source.. I dont even know if its possible to start a harvester on a zero percent..)

I'd even seen more bizzar. One resource that shifted out 2 weeks ago, shifted back in again. The new resources mined of it even stack with the old ones. Probably you've seen something like that happen in a short timeframe.
