How do you produce crates of Air Cakes?

OK I made 100 Carbosyrup's

Made 100 Dough

and have plenty of Fruit left over...

I make the schematic and threw the ingrediants in and it would never make the Air Cake... I ahve tried using crates no good... tried unloading the crates and putting indivual sources of Carbo adn Dought in... and it just wont work.... can soemoen tell me what I am doing wrong??

You did make your prototype air cakeusing the carbo and dough that you made in the factory right?

Yes first thing I did was make a Carbo Schematic... Then ran the factory and made 100 of those (4 crates)...

I then made a Dough Schemetic... Ran factory made 100 of those (4 crates)...

I then took 1 from the 100 of the dough and carbo and made a schematic for Air Cake...

OK So I then take the rest of the fruit I had that I used to make the schematic and put it in Factory... I then threw in the 99 Dough and 99 Carbo and ran it... few mins later I get the the factory finished and made 0 items... I looked and instead of being like 900 fruit I was down to 892 and I was down to 98 dough and 98 carbo... I thought that was weird... So I though well maybe the dough and carbo cant be in the crate... So I pulled all the crates out... and I put 49 carbo and 49 dough into the factory along with the rest of the 892... I ran the factory again and got the same message... Factory finished and had 0 items...

I am using the exact same Dough and Carbo it requires (even verified the Serial numbers 2 times)... and I have no clue why it isn't making anything...

I have run across this problem many times. I know *A* solution, but you may not like it. I have found that if I remove the items from the factory crates, and place them, individually, into the ingredient hopper, it will work the way it is supposed to. It is a tedious solution, but will work. For some reason, factories will sometime fail to get the resources from a crate. When this occurs, the resources it was able to pull will be used up, but the item will not be created AND the factory will stop.

Misterie

Umm I did do that...

i also read another thread stating that you need to insert the ingredients in the hopper in the exact order they appear in the schematic... NOT the order in which the factory lists them when asking for them, but the order they are in when you bring up the schematic in your datapad (or something, sorry, i have no factories but i read it because it was interesting). the poster stated that this method works each and every time, so try that out (search for the post for exact instructions).

did you already ruun the factory once for the day you might need too redeed it because of the factory bug

Yes I did already run it... OK... will pull all the ingrediants out tonight redeed and retry it tonight...

aren't Air cakes an artisan schematic?

It also tends to be difficult to get factories to pull from crates. Mine usually pulls from crates as long as there is more than one duplicate crate of each ingredient. When I get to the last crate, I have to manually unload the crates to get the factory to continue.

Well tried it yesterday after the server reset and it worked wonderful... made me 3 crates of 25 and 1 of 18... **edit** machine ate 6

It's just a bug...

I got the same message trying to make some basic dough. Tried everything so I just waited until the server reset and started it up again and now everything is fine. It's that same "one-use-a-day-for-factories" bug rearing its ugly head again.
