Is this some sick joke? I take all the time to gather these resources and fail twice.

Is this normal? What demented developer put such a high failure rate on such a large item?

I'm 15 for 16 on factories. Your sample is a little small to be arguing percentages.

To small? The failure for the actual factory should be 1% or less.

I'm by no means a casual gamer, but if this happened to a casual gamer, I think they would quit.

Put more failure on the components so the loss isn't as great. I've had three failures as an architect. Two for the actual factory and one for a structure module.

That's 60 modules and on failure, two factories two failures. I don't think my sample set is too small.

If you're dealing with less than thousands yeah the sample is bit small. You could get by with just a few hundred samples but really thousands of combines work better.

Danbu, you had a stroke of very bad luck. It is not typical to fail on final combines for structures. In fact, I never have.

Tip: Before the big combine...make something trivial until you get a fail, make one more..then combine your big ticket item.

I found that fails sometimes come in 2's...hence the additional combine after initial fail.

Odds are after you fail something, you won't fail the next...shrug just my thoughts.

Sorry to hear that, and I thought failing on to small houses was bad. Although I have no resources left to work with now, I am feeling like I am totally starting anew again. It is quite discouraging.
