[2.1.8] Old orbital plattform building request blocks dropping to planet

Post by burninghey »

I was troubleshooting my fulgora build. Have an orbital recycling plattform and groundbased science pack production.

Platform "Orbitalrecycler 1" has some old building requests (long fullfilled). The request for 0 accumulators actively blocks dropping to fulgora ground:

Landing Hub Fulgora asking for accumulators. Available because orbital plattform is full but they never drop:

Always? Load the save. Always.
If I uncheck "automatic request building material" in orbital platform it starts dropping accumulators immediately.


I expected old building orders to not block logistics later.

Thanks for the report however this is working as intended. If it didn't work this way: as soon as an item arrived to fulfill a building request it would instantly get sent back to the planet.

Once you’ve finished building it, if it won’t be moved to another plant: at least once yes.
