Okay, I broke down and bought some baby ground pounders (personal mineral extractors) last night. I needed cheap supplies for skilling. I also bought some liquid fuel and harvested some radioactive fuel to drop on/in these harvesters. The problem is when I try to deposit power to my new pounders, there is no power to transfer to them in my inventory, although I have the fuels there.

Am I missing something? do these require a specific type of energy or quantity of energy? Why doesn't the fuel in my inventory show as valid?

Liquid Petro fuel doesn't work for powering harvesters. Counter-intuitive but true.

Odd about the radioactives though, they should be fine for power. You mentioned you harvested radioactives. I hope you didn't do that by hand!

Actually I did it by hand, but I didn't take any wounds for it. Granted I only pulled out about 30 count just to see if I could use them in the harvesters. I wish I could remember what the resource was called, perhaps it wasn't the fuel i thought.

You need to use the 'deposit power' off the radial menu for the farm to deposit your energy.

The only things that count as energy for mines are wind, solar, and radioactive.

30 units of power will only last you like 10 minutes
