I was wondering if someone could please explain how to place/build harvesters and power generators. I have a couple deeds for wind generators and harvesters and everywhere I try to put them I get either:

You cannot build here...no building zone. (or something like that, but this one isselfexplanatory)OR

You cannot perform that action in your current state (huh?, what does that mean?)

Is there aguide somewhere that explains this. I have one, but can't find anything that helps.

Thanks in advance for any help.

You have to be way out of the city. The range has varied in the past - it should be over 1K for sure though. You also cannot build in certian area, like steep hillsides.

Make sure you aren't in combat, or moving, or swimming when you try to sample. If you're not engaging in any type of activities,try waiting a bit after stopping before you sample.

If nothing else, /bug it and try logging out and back in.

Whenever I get the "You cannot perform that action in your current state", I just type:

/stand

And it seems to work after that, as it thinks I'm in some other state I guess up until that...
