so i sign into the game this afternoon, infront of my crafting machine inside my humble homestead, ready to start grinding my mirconuietrients again..... but today when i open up my crafting tools i don't see my "hopper" option??? someone PLEASE tell me they relocated it ?? i have tooo much good OQ #ed resources in that hopper to even think that for some reason its been lost or new bug has surfaced...

help ?? please ??

I don't know how much value I can add here but I can imagine your state of panic so I will try my best.

1. Similar problem: Several times I've come into my house and found various containers to be empty. I could open them but not see anything inside and the inventory report of the container always read 0(50) or whatever the size of the container was. This has happened with my crafting station hopper as well. I know this isn't exactly the same problem you are having but it's at least in the same ballpark....container iventory access issues.

2. In the above scenario I had a friend come inside the building and look in the same containers. They were always able to see the contents. I logged completely out of the game (sometimes 2x) and was eventually able to see the contents.

3. 2 things you might try....A) put your current crafting tool(s) down in someone elses house..get them out of range of your crafting station completely then go buy a new one off of the bazaar or have another made. Try accessing the hopper with the new station. Maybe something happened to your inventory with the latest update. B) try to pick up your crafting station. If I'm right it won't allow you to because it's not empty. If it tells you, "Hey, this thing isn't empty so you can't pick it up" then you at least know that it's contents are safe and you'll just have to wait until the hopper access bug is fixed. If you can pick it up...well, bad things...

thx bro...

when i log back into the game, i'll give your suggestions a try....

No problem. I hope something helps.

OMG! Same problem here...no input hopper. It's not just empty....it's not even there!

There is a serious bug someplace. I went to a second house and placed a new crafting station and tried to access the input hopper with a new crafting tool. There is NO hopper! I get the option from the radial menu to open it but nothing happens and when I try to craft an item it doesn't give me the option of using the hopper either. This is confirmed now with both my existing station and tool as well as a new station and tool in a different house! Now what?

same here... no even an option for it... like it was removed totally.......

there is NO WAY i can even try and replace the stuff i had stored in that hopper

This patch 'fixed' crafters ability to access nested bags to get ingredients, it appears that fix broke station hoppers.

The hotfix list for Sat. mentions being able to access these again.

Wasn't a problem for me as I don't use them, but I'm **edit** pissed about my rebel marine backpack (with ALL of my inorganics and Adv. med components ) in my house going MIA... still waiting for a CSR to contact me about that. It looks like it's still there by the item count, but I can't see or access it... logging in and out does nothing.
