Did they just add a bunch of architectural components that we have no schematics for or am i on crack? I am refferring to when I was trying to craft a solar power generator and the such...
Thanks for your time

Make sure you are standing in front of a private structure crafting station and using a structure crafting tool.

You can also use a droid rather than a crafting station.
Also I wouldn't really bother with solar generators. Windmills have higher BER and cost like 1/10th the resources as solar.

Watch using the droid, could just be me but not all my scheme's show when i use it, and sometimes it doesn't give meexper option.

Yeah I think there is a bug right now that if you call a droid in a house then it doesn't have its options active.
If you start the crafting session and it doesn' have all the more complex schematics available then store it and recall.

These are some of the components my crafting tool is asking for, that I can't find anywhere,even in front of my own crafting station:
sensor wiring harness; array processing unit; preprocessing unit; ore storage tanks as well as or storage units; capacitance tanks AND capacitance storage tanks .
I've looked on the bazzaar and the items are not listed, and I've looked into other crafting tools for them. I found one of the needed components in the general crafting tool, but it wanted 3 more off the wall items that I can not find a record of. Help!
Thanks

A list of the funky components I can't find yet:
Mineral Mining Installation:
Ore storage tank
Power supply unit
Ore storage unit
resource handling system
Deep Crust Chemical Extractor
Liquid storage tank
Liquid storage unit
Resource handling system
Power supply unit
Wind Power Generator:
Capacitance tank
I know some of this stuff is easy to find and is on the list. I built 3 wind power generators 2 weeks ago and now it giving me this crap!
I hope I'm just being retarded and can't find the stuff, because I'll be pissed if it doesn't exist.
Thanks for your time and patience.

I think I see what you're doing. 
The subcomponents you listed are just the names of the parts in the schematics. The actual subcomponents you need aren't the titles listed above the boxes. You'll have to look on the screen *before* the screen you go to put resources in. In other words, when you first open the tool. Now highlight what you want to build, and look to the right - you'll see the REAL subcomponents you need in white, and the "names" you listed in mustard. You will see the same thing to the right of the "add resources" screen.
For example, the "Ore Storage Tank" actually requires 3 similar Structural Modules (similar meaning made by same person, regardless of resources or quality).
The "Resource-handling system" actually requires 2 identical Turbo Fluidic Drilling Pump Units from a factory crate (Identical meaning you must make a schematic, and put it into a factory, and you must use the same resources used to make the schematic...then the factory will crate up the parts for you).
I hope that helps! Easy mistake to make

Yeah, that's kinda what I thought was happening too.
You can also mouse-over the resource input box and it should show you what goes in there.
