Thread: Harvesters, Resource Shifts and lost resources

I'm curious of anyone else has noticed this problem. I've done a quick search of the boards and haven't seen it mentioned anywhere. Since I'm on a dialup connection, it is tortureous to try to look through these boards.

Last night, after another resource shift on eclipse, I went to check out my stopped harvesters.

On one harvester, I had something like 800 resources, which I pulled out and then reset the resources. I go to the harvester sitting next to it and reset the resource first then go to the bin to pull out the resource and there is only one. Now, I'm sure you're thinking, that I must have forgotten to turn on the harvesters. Well, I always put the same amount of power and maintainance in both harvesters and they had equivalent remaining power so they both must have been running.

I then went to my wind harvesters and the exact same thing happened. 600 energy in the first one and 1 energy in the second.

So, what it seems that if you reset the resource before actually emptying out our bin, you're SOL on resources.

Thanks,

Yeah, I think this was a bug in the system. I know in the past when I've changed the resources without emptying the hopper, I had essence "dumped" the hopper and started over. Now its just a force of habit to empty the hopper first, then pay maintenance, deposit power, change resources if necessary.
