Thread: Factory bugs

I know of at least two factory bugs:


1) removing a crate while the factory is in operation will cause the factory to break.


2) using a 1000 unit schematic when the factory attempts to make the 101st item will cause the factory to break.



If you know of any other bugs causign factories to break please post them. If we know what is causing the bugs it is easier for us to avoid them.

The developers are well aware of the bugs on factories. They have been working on fixing them for the past few days. I think it is one of their top priorities. I remember reading workarounds somewhere on the boards...

The workaround is once broken re-deed and place it. Problem is that is a pain to do after every couple of runs. But if you know what not to do your factory doesn't get broken and there is no need to re-deed the factory and place it over and over.

I've never encountered bug #2. I take things out while the factory is running now and then and have yet to have a problem.

Ok, I don't know if anyone else is getting this, but any thing I try to craft that requires factory made parts is not accepting those factory made parts.

Anyone else having this bug?

Try pulling the individual items from the crate & make 1. someone reported a similar problem with prior to today's patch items & succeeded only when pulling the items from a crate.

Confirmed..but odd


Crafting a structure maintenance L3 module it will take EGP from the crate ok, but EMM neither from a crate nor 3 of them previously pulled from a crate.


I will investigate further..doesnt look too good though.

Is this only on Structure modules or does anything seem to have this issue?


Edit: Also....what happens if you craft 3 new EMMs from scratch?

Made some Level 3 maintenance module, with pre-patch crates of memory module and GP module.

Worked fine from crate.

Will try more.

This is really starting to look server-specific.



There are a BUNCH of Corrs. actively tracking this right as we speak. It's been noted:



Servers reporting problems: Chilastra, Bloodfin, Ahazi, Eclipse, Bria

Servers apparently ok: Scylla

Also did some Lvl3 maintenance mods with pre-patch EMM's and GPM's, but ran out. Got a customer who wanted a couple of droids with lvl6 storage, did a fast factory run and found out that the EMM's were broke


They wont show up in the little window when you add the recourses. tried getting mods from crate, no change, also tried dragging the crate from inventory to the slot, not working also did it with single modules, same result


I have not tried hand-building them but even if it would work it doesn't help DE's (nor other profs either I dont think) as we are very dipendent on factory made GPs and EMMs

If anyone can get me very detailed info on being able to reproduce this bug, I can help to get it in front of eyes of the Devs ASAP.

Runesabre has posted an announcement that they are aware of issues with using factory crated parts and are working to resolve this.


More information and details would very likely be quite helpful.

hmmm, donno about re-produce info... but basicly if one makes a new crate with equiptment factory, they wont work. result as I described above.


also another thing that might be of help/interest. when I built the Lvl3 maintenance mods I used "pre-patch" made GPs and EMMs that already were in my inventory, but when I picked up a crate from the floor of my workshop they didin't work. I dont know how the code works but I guess if you had it in the inventory they work, but not if you had it stored in a container so to speak "outside" your char. So I guess that the server changes something on the item to double check for dupe or something when you add it in your inventory? that way it got broke by some variable or similar I'm guessing... hope it helps.
