When I logged on this morning, I could not longer access the input hopper on my crafting station.


I'm standing right in front of it. I can't bring it up during a recipe, I can't bring it up from the crafting kit.


99.5% of ALL my ingredients are stored.... guess where?


And I have an order for 100 slices of wedding cake and aitha fruit punch for a wedding tonight


Am I the only one seeing this?

Well, it looks like the Devs wanted to keep their flawless record of "NEVER fixing anything for Chefs without BREAKING something else for Chef". Terribly sorry Haala, I was hoping that we'd get a clean fix but I can't say that I'm surprised at what they did. Now all that we can hope for is that our TestCenter Chefs can scream about this, other professions than Chef are effected, and that they don't take 6 weeks to fix it.

Input hopper on crafting station? Ingredients are stored in it? Not sure what your talking about... one would think your talking about factoys. But that doesn't have anything too do with recipes or crafting kits....


More info please.

If youhave a private crafting station, you can put resources and componentsinto its input hopper. The input hopper shows up as another tab at the top of the resource selection window when crafting next tothe station. This lets you use your house's storage space tohold resources, without having to swap them into your inventory when you want to actually make something. Of course, this is done through the oh-so-intuitive method of going to your crafting tool, bringing up the sub-menu off "start crafting", and selecting "Input Hopper" when standing next to the station.


Why can't they just have the hopper available from the station itself?


I haven't checked this today, but I was able to use my input hopperlast night. I was checking to see if there was still a problem getting components from crates in the hopper. The last time I tried pre-patch, double clicking a crate in the hopper didn't insert the item into the schematic slot. After the patch, crates did work.


So it looks like this change was introduced in today's hotfix, so it won't be as complicated to back out.

Huh... never knew about this input hopper. Have to check it out. Though my house doesn't have much extra space in it for holding resouces. I normaly just fill my factoys up with them and go get them when I need them.

Hi SirVimes!


I just had a friend try on my station, and she could not bring up the input hopper either.


We ran over to another building that we have access to and tried the station there, but we were also unable to access the input hopper there.


I think it may not be isolated to just me.
