@system_msg:manf_error_7
Anyone know what this error is? I get it when my structure factory stops working. The mail subject is "Internal Manufacturing Error"
It appears to be releated to the amount of stuff in the output hopper because if I remove things it starts working again. But the hopper is only at 72%. Could it be that experimentation really works on factories and I need to experiment the hopper higher to get it filled to 100%? Seems like it could just say its full though if thats the case.

Yes it has to do with the output bin being almost full. If you remove some stuff then you can start the factory up again.
Some folks have theorized that the experimented factories are less susceptable to this error. I dunno.

I've spent the past four days making a run of structure modules and small structure modules, even though they only take two minutes each!! 24 hours ago, I started two factories and made a grand total of 13 crates in one and 11 crates in the other.
These are the same factories that can make 70 crates of generator turbines in one session.
Sometimes I despise this profession.

If its any consolation I've seen it reported by another crafting profession too. SO it is apparently not just happening to structure factories but probably with all factories.

Yeah, its a problem with all factories I believe. There was a post on the Tailor forums yesterday about the same issue.

I also have the error with Clothing/Armour stations. It definitely seems related to the output hopper being close to capacity - maybe it's something to do with moving items from a 'holding' area into the output hopper, similar to de-crating an item in a full pack.

I recieved this error while running some powerups in an equipment factory. After contacting two CSR's, the answer I got was to redeed the factory, which didn't help. The best solution I've come up with is transferring the crates to the input hopper. Good luck to you.

Yet another TWELVE MONTH BUG that they have literally REFUSED to fix.
Dvnce and Pawlin, you wonder why people quit? I have a EX-Master BE friend that hit the surrender button last night after losing 96K of high-quality Naboo avian meat due to one of these errors and being told by a CSR that it wasn't their problem. Do you guys have any idea how long it took to collect 96K of Naboo avian?
Fun? Support? Attention to playerbase? LIterally does not exist.

No I don't. I know plenty of valid reasons.
