freighters stuck at incomplete mining station - 9/5/2013 4:31:43 PM

Once again I was playing a heavily modded game so no save...

In my current game I've had a chronic shortage of steel, and when checking up on one mining station that was incomplete due to lacking steel, I found a large number of freighters sitting on top of it, all with a command to transport steel. I had to destroy the mining base in order to free up what was easily half of my freighter fleet. I could only hazard a guess as to what the problem was, but if it helps at all the incomplete mine was supposed to be a steel mine.

Your design includes a Docking Bay? to deliver the steel?

Well, I was going to bed.. but I better just check this to be sure and then see about conquering those pesky humans next door...

Ok so they have 4 docking bays.

same thing here but with a rebuilt 'found' spaceport. needs argon to finish private ships under construction and
ship after ship shows up with argon moves to the station then leaves without unloading. perfectly good station.

Thanks for this report. This is fixed in the next update.
