Ihave the same problem with not being able to access the 'operate machinery' menu, or the 'deposit power' menu. Randomly happening on different harvesters.

I have bugged it and sent several requests for help using the CSR system over the past 2 days ... and havent even got a resonse... In fact even that seems bugged (tickets appearing and disappearing in there, getting 'creation failed' messages).

Its great 'paying' to beta test ... sign me up for the next one!

Same here one of my wind generaters i cant acess the operate machine section . It seems like an on and off problem sometimes i can most of the time i cant get it to work . Submited a bug report .....

I had my first run in with this today, payed up a harvester, threw in a chunk of power, and went to clean out another one.

Had power left over, decided to throw it in there, no go.

Same problem here, it happens on all three harvesters of a friend I admin, and today it extended to one I own.
As well, some of those sometime disappear, reappearing hours later, which is somewhat troublesome...

OK, what qualifies as an energy source? I have a little of just about every resource, and when I try to depoit power it tells me that I don't have any energy sources.

Getting rather upset... the online help is useless for this, the manual with the game? Of course not. The "official" stratgy guide? Of course not.

Yep having same problem not being able to Opperate Machinery to get my resources out. Have /bugged it and sent csr ticket in but we know those dont do a **edit** thing. So far the best thing i have heard from anyone is to keep grabbing our ankles while they have their way with us before long it will be over and we will be ready for the next round of phuckin

Simple answer. Go to all your HARVESTERS first, power them, collect your resources. Then log out for 5 minutes. Then go to your generators.

As soon as you operate a generator, you will not be able to operate a harvester. And vice versa. I follow the above, and I can do as many HARVESTERS in a row as I want.

I too had this problem. I logged out and logged back in and I could "Operate Machinery" once again. So there ya go.

The log out/log back on method of getting the operate machinery to work properly does not solve the problem consistantly. There have been times when it would work for me, but others where it didn't matter at all. Another method that works some of the time (assuming you have more than one harvester that you are at least admininstrator of) is to go and access a different harvester's operate machinery and then come back to the uncooperative one. I have had this method work about as often as the log out/log back on one. Unfortunately this can be time consuming if the harvesters are spread and still does not always work. Desperate times call for desperate measures though. If we all keep /bug ging about it maybe eventually this will be fixed once and for all.

I have done the same things that Winnowill has done. I go access a different harvester nearby then I can access the troubled one ususally.

I've also been experiencing disappearing harvesters, houses, etc. I hope there is a patch coming soon. This kind of thing is very frustrating.

I had the problem with not able to do whatever in my current state. I stopped and rotated in place so it was obvius to the system I wasn't running and it let me in.

My biggest problem is racking up maint cost. I planted a wind generator and racked up 4000+ credits overnight. It would be cheaper for me to just run it into the ground, empty the hopper and build a new one in its place. I only paid 1000 for my wind gen and 500 for my flora farm, I've already put 2k in maint in.

Cananybody tell me if this is normal?
