Electric mining drill not mining expected resources

Post by SammoSammo »

Hi,

I've got an electric miner that has power, is reporting expected resources but isnt mining. The area directly beneath it doesnt have stone but the area to the left does.

I just removed one of the pieces of belt on the left hand side and it resumed mining- it continued to mine even though I've replaced the belt.

Thanks.

Thanks for the report. Was the chest full that was trying to insert into? If so, it won't mine until it can put the things it's mining into it.

It would also help if you could upload the save file exhibiting the issue.

Ahh of course- sorry forgot to check the obvious thing first. Yes the chest was full. Please close :)
