I was making a mega run of bits, you know the ones 40/40 stocks, adv. handlers, adv. rifle barrels. When on 900 items out of 1000 my factory went doink...Internal Manufacturing Error : Int_Manf_Error:6. Excellent I thought. Ah well 900 stocks will do. Plop in my Adv. Rifle Barrel Schem and kcik off the factory. Same error this time on 0 items. Tried 3 other schems...same problem.


Raised a bug report, sent details to a CSR.


The good news : CSR response was super quick (within an hour) hurrah !


The bad news : His advise was to ensure both the input and output hopper was completely empty before loading the schematic.


Laugh...I nearly choked....I have replied that emptying all my hoppers each time I add a schematic may be a tad arduos and raise, for example the cost of a Rocket Launcher would tripple just to cover my annoyance !!!


After the restart all is well with my factory.

Actually I think this is the bug when your output hopper reaches somwhere around 75 itmes.

You used to have to redeed the factory to fix it, but I guess they semi-patched the bug to automatically fix broken factories on server resets.

I keep my factories at 60/100 or less in output hopper and I've never had this bug.



POKEY THE PENGUIN SIG REMOVED BY GARVA BECAUSE "Just because you are crafty enough to get around the technicality of it being a .jpg or .gif does not mean it is not an image, it is not ascii art, it is an image" SO HERE IS MY NEW SIG.
HUGE UGLY SIG

I have this prob every once in a while.. I just go to another of my 13 factories and re-run it cause the factory is usually hosed until reset. I cant just empty out my output hoppers as I'd have no place to put my subs. This was a major pain on the crafting patch day trying to get everything schemmed with 1/2 of my factories buggin out.

Well it worked for 400 items (14 crates) and then went boink again. I restarted it (without reading these inciteful comments) again after reset and it started.


So I suspect a full-ish output hopper is the problem. Odd as I have another factory spewing out zillions of ABH at the moment....ah well ... looks like time to build my fourth storage house has finally come !!!!!


Thanks for the input aout the output (damn...not even funny anymore)

This happened to me the very first time I ever used my factory (a week or so ago... I am new). It kicked in at 50 items. I took some of the crates out, started it again, and it happened again. Since it was the first time I had ever run a factory, and none of my friends that would have known about factories were on at the time, I decided to ignore it and hope it would fix itself when the server reset. It did!

I haven't had the problem since. *shrugs*

I have access to the following with my account, alt, and my smuggler friend..


13 Equip Factories
1 Clothing/Armor Factory (I was master tailor once and still have schems)
5 small houses


I am always running out of room I think it reflects me in real life, my desk is always messy. 2 Factories are full of geo loot/cubes, I also have a set factory for alum/copper, iron/steel, and gems/gas/ore, each full. Who knows what is in the rest, usually misc crates of components and tissues etc.
