Ok, how do you want me to upload the log file?

NOTE: I think it solved somehow after reinstalling this mod:

I think I have a problem with shuttles or colonists. Explanation:
When there's a lot of colonists moving between domes (for job issues or whatever), they take a looooooot of time to travel and I don't know if it's a problem with mods or a problem with the latest game expansion (B&B).

So, if you want me to make a list with the mods I'm currently using or whatever, tell me so.

That'll work (no promises though)

I think I understand. Bear with me because computer is not my first language. Please let me know if this is too much, too little, or not precisely what you wanted.

Hey ChoGGi, love your mods and all the thought you put into them. Got a stuck shuttle bug a few months back and that's what sent me down the rabbit hole of your mod list. Mostly the bug fix ones, or utility mods. My issues are that shuttles keep getting stuck, the majority stay idle in the hub, and I'm still getting stuck rockets even after reloads and playing with enable/disabling the mods in game and the manager. Plenty of fuel/power, maintenance is fine, and they're set to transport everything but still sit there even though load is heavy and stuff isn't getting moved. Not using anyone else's mods. Seems to start happening around 1-2k colonists, or maybe that's just when I notice it. Your assistance would be much appreciated, as I love your mods and would like to keep using them. I don't have all the DLC, not sure if that makes a difference.

mmm, maybe... This fix is just changing their command telling them to go home. I did notice some errors about some storage depots in your game?
Roman von Ungern-Sternberg 22 Mar, 2021 @ 1:37pm 
That didnt help. Shuttles now return to the bays and than do nothing. Maybe I did something wrong - I just reinstalled this mod (tried several times)?
ChoGGi  [author] 19 Mar, 2021 @ 7:43pm 
Should be good now.
ChoGGi  [author] 15 Mar, 2021 @ 1:40pm 
Hmm, I'd have to see your save file. They're in your game profile: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1777493789
Roman von Ungern-Sternberg 15 Mar, 2021 @ 12:07pm 
Hallow ChoGGi. I want to ask you for help. I have been cheating extensively using your cheat menu. And now all my shuttles are stuck. They just hang over resource depos and do nothing. That fix didnt help. Ive googled alot but didnt find the solution.
Sorry for my english.

There's a log folder in your profile folder

if the file is too big than zip it: email@choggi.org

I wouldn't even know where to look. I managed to recreate it on a small scale last night (a whole 3 drones got stuck twice, which is a definite improvement of a few dozen). I think it might just be the game itself; it only happens in my automated factory rows and only once I've got a fair amount of plant life growing. I think they maybe get trapped by a bush or something.
ChoGGi  [author] 16 Nov, 2020 @ 7:54am 
I don't suppose anything shows up in the log?
sargatanus 14 Nov, 2020 @ 11:28am 
@ChoGGi It's SIlva's Automated Factories. At least, that's where the bug tends to happen. It could also be the hover drones from the NASA 2k mod or just how I build things. Hard to say for sure without starting a few new games to play with the suspected variables and developing a colony to the (rather advanced) point where the bug starts to happen.
ChoGGi  [author] 14 Nov, 2020 @ 11:19am 
Maybe? Which mod exactly?
sargatanus 14 Nov, 2020 @ 11:18am 
I occasionally get drones stuck and piling up outside automated factories, causing them to fill up and shut down. Might be a bug in the automated factories mod, not sure. More likely it's probably because I like to build in zones and build tight. Think you might be able to fix that?

Hey ChoGGi, for the life of me, I cannot find the setting anywhere to make shuttles and wasp drones fly in dust storms... Apologies if this doesn't exactly pertain to this particular mod, but I've not seen a mod that does this, nor can I find it in the coding/etc. Thoughts? (is there an IM on Steam?)
Reaniel 9 Jan, 2020 @ 8:36pm 
Mods, yes, but they’re mostly yours :P
It’s mostly just overlay stuff like dust lines for extractors, more info in panels, hours instead of sols, how long till kids graduate, that kind of thing. The only things that’d be gameplay affecting are the extended cheat menu and 2 birth limiting mods.

And I did try to ctrl click on various options, including pickup method, priority, and off/on. Didn’t help with the situation when I tried that. I even tore down all the shuttle hubs, and the rebuilt ones are still bugged.

I’ll check for error tomorrow in the log files.

Thanks for the suggestions!
ChoGGi  [author] 9 Jan, 2020 @ 5:35pm 
Got many mods?
Do they have fuel to fly with?
Have you ctrl-clicked that option that switches only allowing them to pick up passengers?

any errors in your log file? https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1777493789

Hi there. I'm having trouble with my shuttles in a game that I have. At first, I thought it could be the same bug you're describing here, and downloaded your mod to try and fix it, but no luck at all.

Most of my shuttles are just not launching from their hub at all, despite having maybe a million tasks waiting for them. And the few that seem to have launched are stuck in mid air.

I thought it was because I had too high of a population for my computer to handle, so I just allowed them to die off. I'm now down to around 2k population (from a high of 4.2k), but the shuttles are still not working.

Do you have any suggestion as to what I should try? Is there anyway for me to drop of my save so that you can maybe take a look at it?

Thanks

The jumpers use the shuttle class obj, so probably? (I forget if I did or not)
grz34998 27 Dec, 2019 @ 8:01am 
does this work for jump hubs?
Spitty 27 Aug, 2019 @ 10:41am 
Having this issue in my game. Tried this mod, but it didn't do the trick after the load (as you mention in description). Shuttles seem to only be getting stuck in relation to moving resources around as the shuttles still transfer people around to different domes. My save is below. Thanks in advance for any help!

Yeah I've seen people mention it before, never had a save with the issue in it before this so :)
El Presidente 29 Oct, 2018 @ 11:13pm 
I have seen this before. Great idea for a mod.
