Station Plots Reducing - Dev investigating but a save would be useful

Post by Vegizer » Sat, 9. Feb 19, 08:55

Greetings,

Discovered a bug when building a station. After assigning a builder for some reason the plot size of the station re reduced on the -X direction from 10 to 2. If I look at the plot the game stops then after a bit it closes the plot area and resumes gameplay. I am unable to add items on the existing station as the station is now out of the plot zone. Tried closing and reloading game same effect.

Did a kinda fix, able to add on to the station at least. Had to change XML code from:
<buildplot>
<max x="6500" y="10000" z="10000"/>
<center x="3500"/>
</buildplot>
<paidplotbox>
<max x="6500" y="10000" z="10000"/>
<center x="3500"/>
</paidplotbox>

To:
<buildplot>
<max x="10000" y="10000" z="10000"/>
</buildplot>
<paidplotbox>
<max x="10000" y="10000" z="10000"/>
</paidplotbox>

This allows me to now addon to the station and has correct dimensions. However I still have issues when viewing plots for this specific station, game freezes then close the plot window. The plot still renders at x 2km sometimes and others 10km but still close.

It sounds like this report. (No solution there.)

A savegame of your issue would be useful (I'll also take a look at the save linked to by Alan).
So, you had a 10x10x10KM plot, paid for, and then assigned a construction vessel? You then noticed it was wrong?
Come watch me on Twitch where I occasionally play several of the X games
