OK, I've figured out that if I'm building something that contains subcomponents, I have to make a schematic of the sub and put that crate in with the other resources (so that the sub is IDENTICAL to the one in the schematic) to get the component I'm trying to make. This morning, I was trying to make a component that had 2 subs. I kept getting the mail saying that construction finished and that 0 were produced. It was, however, taking one of the subcomponents from the crates. I tried taking one of each sub out of the crate, and got the same thing. Is it impossible to create a component in a factory that has more than 1 subcomponent?

Hi I was wondering if you were using a factory say a structure one and was planning to make crates of wall modules could you put in crates of structure module or could u only put in individual structure module? if that is the case would that mean you can only make 9 wall modules at a time due to the fact that there is only 100 space in the factory?

You must pull items from the crate and place individually in the factory input.

I tried it the other way and lost the resources for one wall and screwed up some of the structure modules, then just stopped. I chalked it up to lesson learned and now place all items in individually.

Thanks

Factory crates are pretty buggy right now so you do need to load the items by hand.

This does limit you to making 9 wall modules at a time. But if you leave the wall crate in the output hopper, usually the next run will add to it. I say usually because sometimes it doesn't.

Ok. Im half way through the doctor tree, so far the only think I would need a factory for would be for my stim d's. I haven't even bothered trying to craft C's yet heh ..

But it's obvious I am gonna have to buy a factory? Because the more I read the forums, the more it sounds like more meds and than just he stim d requires them. I just figured I woulnd't make D's heh.

But since I need a factory, what kind do I need? And can master architects make them or where do I get them? And normally how many do i need? and can i place it anywhere or does it have to be over a specific source?

You will need a factory for more advanced medicines.

You can get a facotry from an architect that has installations 1 or 2 i believe

u neeeda food factory

argg whys it always just me? im telling u this game hates me...

lol that didnt work for me..

the game kicked me out of my faction and i lost about 2k fp worthof ranks

lol hahaha ne1 else think im jinxed?

Thank ya

Now..does it have to be over a specific resource or can i just plop down anywhere beside my house? hehe

and does it take up 1 or 2 lots? is that what u meant by installatoins? heh

takes 1 lot and can be plopped down anywhere u can build and have room
