i got my first harvestor last night and found a place to place it, paid the maintence and added powerand picked a resource from the list and turned it on. i let it run for awhile then realized i was gathering the wrong resource (class 4 solid petro, i need class 4 liquid petro = DOH!)

ok no big deal i thought, ill just change resources and get something else. ok look at list and theres nothing really on the list that i need so i decided to redeed the harvestor and move it somewhere else. i attempt to turn off the harvestor by clicking the 'turn off harvestor" button but nothing happens. ok so i empty the hopper thinking that may be it, still no go. ok so i just click on destroy structure and i get the error saying i must turn the harvestor off before redeeding, ok try again, still wont shut off. by now ive gathered more resources so i empty the hopper again and i try discarding it also still no go. i try simply changing resources but it wont change them either. anywaysi decide to come back later thinking maybe i was lagged or something so i leave and come back about 2 hours later, empty the hopper again and try turning it off, still wont shut off

anyways my question is, is this as intended or is something amiss here? is there a certain amount of time the harvestor has to be up and running before you can shut it off/change resources? i tried searching for answers but of course i came up empty.

anyways any help would be apprieciated

Were you on a mount? Certain harvestor commands don't work mounted.

no, was standing right next to it
