Rebellious Fabricators

04Leonhardt

Having an issue with the Fabricator in my base.
I'll construct it, then tell it to build something, and it will construct the item, but once it's finished, it won't add the item to my inventory, and just sit there and laser the item on the little table forever.
I have two solar panels outside with full charge, and more than enough space in my inventory.
Said Fabricator is placed in a Room. Placed one in a corridor, to see if it was the Room causing the issue, and got the same problem.
Tried to partially Deconstruct them with the builder to cancel the item making process, but when I rebuilt it, all the buttons were greyed out, and would not let me make anything.
Had to completely remove the Fabricator to get it to build something again.
Not using any NoCost or Fastbuild cheats.

Currently verifying the cache through steam.
Will update post once it's done.

Yeah I have had this problem too. Anywhere I placed it, it would not work. It might just be a small bug in a particular save file. As of starting a new game it works fine now

Closed the game, verified the game cache, loaded it back up, and it works fine now.
Still, a bug that needs fixing.

Bug happened again.
Verifying the game cache again.

Confused

Some changes did go into teh save system. If it is an older save from experimental thing might break.

If verifying fixes the issue, but then it goes bad again, I would run a disk health check that sounds like it could be a hard drive that is starting to corrupt data. chkdsk is your good buddy there.
