Hi,

Why does my Wind Mill does not produce power when i am gone (after several hours gone 1-10 x Wind Power), but when i stand next to it it produces power on mass ...


Can Power be stolen from the harvesters?

Well, it's supposed to. That's really the whole point of harvesters: they work while you're off doing other things.


Just to cover the bases: did you make sure to pay maintenance into it and turn it on? Is the resource hopper full? Maybe the resource type shifted? A shift turns off the harvester (since the type it was set to is no longer available) and for me always seems to happen just after my last harvester check.


There's also a bunch of display bugs that cropped up with the last publish or two (experimentation not updating item stats, resource stack sizes not increasing as more is harvested/sampled, etc), maybe this is similar. If the harvester is still running when you come back to it, see if leaving the status window open for a bit refreshes the contents.

And FWIW, power cannot be stolen.

Not without a coup, anyway.

It can... if you give someone admin or hopper access rights... but then its rather taken without notice than stolen ^^

What does FWIW stand for now..?




-I support a Galactic Civil War fought between regular, average players... Simply strict, hardlined Imperials & freedom lovin' Rebels fighting for control of the galaxy. A Galactic Civil War fought not with glowsticks or lightsabers, but with blasters, lances, and how much guts you have. A Galactic Civil War which reflects the timeline, the destruction of the Death Star, the absolute control which the Empire has and the brave Rebels trying to break up that reign... The extinction of all but a few rare and special Jedi. That my friends, is the Galactic Civil War and that is what we have to aim for.

If you enjoyed that, you'll probably also enjoy the classic Jargon File. Not only is it afascinating history of programmer culture, some of the definitions are really funny.


Assuming your taste in "funny" runs to geek humor.

1) Ewww...
2) What's the BER and what stat is important when experimenting to improve it?
