I don't pickup that resource, I buy it from another city and drop it at the factory. When there's enough resource for both factories it works.

The problem I'm seeing is that I have all I need for any factory to produce and neither one produces until I have enough of that resource for all of them in that round.

The system doesn't make decisions on which factory should run in that situation. If you have enough for everything they all run, if you don't they all fail. Its a little tricky coding a priority in this situation without bogging down the turn flip some. You could have 10 factories with complicated components. I might prioritize the highest level factories and see how many of them, going down the list, I can run before there isn't enough components for that turn. You still might run into weird situations where the first factory if it runs just took all the X product to do it and now the next 4 couldn't. I guess that would still be better than nothing but it s a lot of tricky code for what is a rare situation. Not on the high priority list is all]]> Sat, 22 Apr 2017 10:21:55 GMT http://forum.baronsofthegalaxy.com/topic2480-production-resources.aspx Message from badmaw

Anyway, the problem is that while the resource was indeed not enough for both of them, any of them could produce a round and neither did.

So somewhere in the resource allocation the algorithm should be changed to feed as many as possible, not all or nothing.

I have two factories, one needs 15 of a resource and the other one 10. I have 16 of that resource (Precious Minerals if it matters). The problem is neither one produced anything that round, even that any one could produce (but not both).]]> Sat, 22 Apr 2017 04:00:51 GMT
