I load up a schematic, dump all the right ingrediants in the hopper, make sure maintainence is paid and power is good... fire up the factory.. "Your factory has stopped. 0 Items were made."

Yet it burned through the materials for one of the components and there is one less on the "count" for that schematic. This has happened on structural modules, power cores and storage modules.. now I can't make any structure requiring factory components, bah!!

I also cant remove a schematic from the factory. Only way is to use anotherschematic to where they switch out.

My equipment factories seem to work fine, though i've only tried one schematic in each of them so far.

When did this begin, please? I played last night until 9 pm eastern. I did no less than six runs of various items in my structures factory, (structural modules x1, wall modules, small struct storage modules, generator turbines) and noticed no problems.

It appears to be a hit-and-miss kind of bug.

My factory only makes 100 items and then stops regardless of the fact that the output hopper is only showing a fill of 1/100.

However I have no problem at all with subsequent runs. My factory is not eating any ingrediants.

My factory has eaten the resources of every item I've tried to make. I hear that new schematics work, and old ones don't. I'm not ready to make new wall module, generator turbine, or power core schematics yet. This has really gotten under my skin. I lost 6 walls today because of this, and the CSR ticket I placed got a "I'll send this up" response typed in, and then later today it vanished entirely with no response.

My factory starts up. I get no email when it is completed. But it stops and there is nothing in the output bin? This sucks!

I've noticed that if someone places a harvester near your factory it screws it up. I've had to move mine 2 times because of this, you'll find that your old spot is no longer valid... just move the factory otu in the boonies and it should work again

It's not just structure factories, my equipment factory does it too.

Yes, just wandered around the weaponsmith forum and they have similar posts. It seems factories are only good for one schematic run, after that they dont do squat.

Some say if you redeem and rebuild the factory, you can use it again.. but still for only one schematic run. I'm not even gonna bother

Not really, I'll just head to bed

Now my factory is doing the same thing, it produced 100 structure blocks, then stops, won't produce anymore. Doesn't stop it from eating up my components though. Thank you bug free SOE.

Any idea when they are going to fix this? I can't make money to pay for my harvesters without selling the high end Structures and Harvesters. I started working on crafting stations but I can't do the subcomponents in an Equipment factory without uprooting every time I need to switch schematics.

I place the items in any factory, recently placed and all goes to plan. If I do not finish using my Schematic I can't remove it. I can swap it for another, but it will just eat the resouces for 1 of the schematic type and tell me it produced 0 items before shutting down. Sacrificing the schematic/power/maint I can pickup and redeed the factory to get 1 more use out of it before having to repeat.

My factories worked before the patch. How long should it take to put them back?

Same problem with my food and chem factory.... its makes a run through ONE time a day... then refuses to make anything else.
