I have various harvesters. When i try to pay maintenance, and pay in amounts less than 500 credits, it says "You must enter a positive amount" or such and it doesnt increase the paid maintenance. However it decreases my bank account - or cash - in the amount i tried to pay. When i give 500 credits, it says "You successfully make a payment of 80 credits to Personal vsvs harvester". And increases the maintenance by 80, but decreases my bank by 500. Very small maintenance returns is the same when paid in amounts over 500.


These harvesters are new, only 1 day - real time - old, and they had no problem with maintenance when last night i deployed and paid them. After today's patch however, im having problems.


Am i missing something ?

I think the maintenance change was unnecessary, and is a bad change as well.

Not like you can take money out of the harvestor...

I like the change...after I fugured out what was going on, it allows me to pay for as many days as I want without having to do the high level math

There is a change to how the "pay maintenance" is done. You now enter the total amount you want it to be at, not the amount you want to put in.


Power still works the old way, which adds to the confusion. I got fooled by this for a while too.


Hopefully they will make both power and maintenance work the same way, I have to believe this will confuse every player the first time they encounter it.

A nice feature would be to let you just specific days and have the harvester automatically updated with the requisite amount of power and maintenance.
