fishoutofwater Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 as tittle says, they (they in jet suits) just keep doing it forever even though the tank has reached its amount needed. bug or I got unlucky? feel like I'm still in early access.

Gurgel Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Probably ye old rounding error. As the game uses short floats, if there are some mg missing in the tank, you can get a situation were adding these few mg will not actually add them, because A+B may end up as A, dues to loss of precision in the calculation. I think you should deconstruct or empty the tank for a temporary fix.

StarSquid Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Try lowering the capacity to below the current amount, then raising it again.

I have had dupes trying to stuff 100s of kgs of additional oxylite into rocket tanks, which would just be rejected and fall on the ground at the rocket's foot. I was not using jet suits, so my solution was to just retract the gantry. It's a bug, for sure, but I suspect that it's some other kind of sloppy programming, not rounding.

fishoutofwater Posted October 8, 2019 Author Share Posted October 8, 2019 getting worse, now dupes filling the tank that is on the way to rocky asteroid. I will try your solution later. I only need 1 more trip then moving on to liquid oxidizer.

With that description, I agree. You should file a bug report and include the save game file.

suxkar Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 I thought it was just an accepted bug and everyone had it. Changing quantity in the solid tank doesn't update the errand, which stays at 2700kg. In my case the only way I found around it was to pause the game IMMEDIATELY after the tank is finished building while having another tank selected NOT on the errand page, so that when I select the newly made one i can change the quantity before the errand is generated (or at least I suppose it works somehow similarly).

CipherLoco Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Definitely a bug I thought would be addressed by now. Only way around it I've found when I'm in that stage of rockets is to have the room where the oxylite is created locked off from dupes, and have it shipped to the rocket. I had it displayed in a previous post/video in the first minute related to a question regarding automating launches.
