well, i thought this was fixed in the beta, but i guess it wasn't. i opened my character today around 5pm, and all my harvesters and wind genterator where gone. no trace, disappeared. but heres teh kicker, i still have 0 lots remaining! what am i supposed to do? its quite annoying, most of my crafting has stopped. i cant put more harvesters down, i have no idea how to remedy this. i was just wondering if others have this problem, or encountered this in the beta and found a work around?

This happened to me and it repopped the next day (I didn't check on it in between so don't know how long it took) I would suggest opening up an in-game ticket on it though.

If you wait it will go away, some of the POIs can be destroyed, some can't. Your harvester is likely a couple feet underground, and not lost.


An irritating bug, I'll add it to my list.

My harvester disappeared in a hill



An NPC camp spawned near it. My question is when the camp is gone, do I get my harvester back?



I had 3k iron on that thing.. thats 30k right there

Definitely /bug it AND call customer support... If we bug the sh*t out of them, maybe they'll fix it. I not only had a harvester disappear on me, but with the add a zero to your energy deposit bug, I placed 6000 energy on a harvester I don't even want and have no way to retrieve it.


God, this game sucks right now!




May the Shrub be with you...

For a week or two now I have been missing two harvesters 1 personal mineral and 1 medium mineral.


Both of the waypoints are still there and both of the lots are still used but the harvesters are no where to be seen. I've had a CSR ticket open about this for a week but no response yet. I thought perhaps that the harvesters would destroy themselves but this is apparently not the case. Does anyone know how to fix this or point me to a thread that does? Is thisbeing addressed or am I the only one? I can't seem to find a post regarding it anywhere. I really need this fixed since it's hurting me as a lone architect who doesn't use extra lots from friends. Please help!

has the world geography changed in that region? I had a harvester almost buried when a nearbye building got removed a hill cameup and almost covered it ..

i know that doesnt help you immensly in getting your items but might explain where it went.

Mine disappeared as well as my solar generators.


I believe it's because of the weirdnesses around their server maintenance (4:00AM). I placed these at 3:00AM but they are gone anyway. In any case the waypoints and emails about them i have, so it's not like the game didn't save the data.

I lost a heavy harvester when Bria burped and reloaded a couple of days ago.


When it came back up, the heavy harvester was gone, the lot was still used, and I lost a bunch of other stuff. All told, I lost roughly 250k worth of materials.


The terrain had not changed, no waypoint was present, etc.


If you still have a waypoint, do check around in the terrain. If it is hilly, you can walk to the edge of the hill, go down a little bit, then make a camp. The camp will flatten the terrain and carve out a section of the hill.


During beta, I had to use a camp to "dig" down about 20 feet into the side of a hill to recover my harvester because the terrain generator had buried it. Why they have a terrain generator is beyond me anyway. Concept seems kinda dumb to have a big hill all-of-a-sudden appear where there was flat terrain the day before.
