Thread: Unable to Operate Machine or Deposit Power on Harvester

Hi,


Has anyone had some problems with the radial menu options "Operate Machine" or "Deposit Power"? I'm finding that I am unable to use it on my Flora Harvester. The strange thing is that I am able to use it on my Chemical Harvester. To add to the strangeness, I am able to use it sometimes on the Flora Harvester so that I can grab stuff from the Hopper but then when I go back to get another batch the problem comes back.


Just checking to see if anyone else has had this problem. I've tried to report it but haven't gotten a response back yet.


Thanks,


Roque

Ive had this problem myself except with my wind generator. And its only with that one. My other two harvesters work just fine.

The first time I logged out and back in and it worked ok. The second time nothing would work.
Came back later and it was still a problem. I sat down and typed /logout. Then just because , i tried it again and it worked fine.
I agree it is very anoying.

I've had this exact same thing happen to me ...and it was location based ...one general location would have this problem consistantly.


I did find that if you logged all the way out for a few minutes (long enough for your character to disappear) it seemed to fix it ....most of the time...



I've opened two CSR tickets on it....no response. I'm not certain what good those tickets are really....

This is a bug I've run into repeatedly, and it's cause is this. You can access harvester after harvester after harvester. But as SOON as you access a HARVESTER, you will NOT be able to access a generator. And vice versa. So what I've started doing, to avoid multiple logouts, is to hit my generator FIRST, pay it's upkeep, get my power, log out, read the forums for about 5, then log back in and I can hit all of my harvesters at once.


Hope they fix this soon, as I've reported it myself.
