[2.0.28] Can't delete space platform

Post by Yonninout »

Hello,

I find similar issues but i'm in a very basic case here. I don't have any mod installed, neither do I'm in the situation that i live an empty space that could prevent the delete of the platform on my ship. I tried in many ways to clean up totally this platform to make a new design but i really can't 😅
I tried to delete it as many as possible at a time, line by line and even 1 by one but i ended up with a cross marked platform that just won't delete.

Here is a link to my google drive where I uploaded, the save file, the log file and also a Screen recording where I show case the bug.
The space platform where this problem is : Gleba logo) Exporter

Have a nice day and thank's for this wonderful game !

From the video it look like the hub is full and you are trying to delete individual tiles so it doesn't do anything.

I thought you were mentionning the button to delete the whole platform at first and it works fine for me.

I Just realised when looking around on debug mod that when I add more platform some other disappeared and yes My Hub is full 😂
This is the first time I send as much content because i'm trying to design a platform for Aquilo.

Sorry about that and thank you @mmmPI

Happened to me too x) you can delete things and at some point it stop working ? check the hub x).

The delete button is more drastic method to redo platforms if you use editor ;)

A simple solution to this problem is to plop down a land mine and wait for a passing asteroid, or use a rocket turret with some nukes.

if the hub is full though you can't get landmines ! you need to trash some of the platforms down to a planet first

Also if asteroid were able to trigger the landmine, you wouldn't need the landmine, it would mean the asteroids are also able to destroy the space platforms no ? :D

You can build an assembly line on the platform! It all depends on what you already have in storage and what machines you have setup.

Maybe you missed my edit before you answer, it was not immediatly clear to me, but upon reflexion :

If asteroid were able to trigger the landmine, you wouldn't need the landmine, it would mean the asteroids are also able to destroy the space platforms no ? :D

Not necessarily, the asteroid might get destroyed by a turret before it can do enough damage. But yeah, nukes would probably be more useful then.

(Also, don't asteroids take damage themselves when hitting stuff? limiting how much a single one can destroy?)

Dude you should just look at the video or load the save game, nukes are completly unrelated ,and the platform is empty of everything

Besides if the asteroids could be destroyed by a turret, it wouldn't reach the landmines !

As mentioned, the platform is full. The alert at the bottom of the screen is saying so.

Good point, I guess they should delete the whole platform and make a new one, but with some nukes so they don't get into the same problem
