I have that problem too... For me it was because I had two LCD one with [TIM Component:P1] and other [TIM Component].

"Only one quota panel may be defined for each item type, since TIM would otherwise have no way to know which one had been edited." under Quotas and Quota Panels @ https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=546909551

I have a similar problem. I tried to get a Wide LCD Panel to display my [TIM Ingot], but it wouldn't show on the panel itself. However when I tried to make a 1x1 LCD Panel and gave that the same tag that one could show it. I don't know if this is a problem related to the Wide LCD Panels or what, but I guess I'll have to use spanning to get the screen width I want for the time being.

I found a "solution" to my problem. I had to relog to my world, and the panels wrote the text out like they should.

Same for me. Can't find the borderless LCD panel in different sizes mod, so using the vanilla panel. Just showed "Online" until I saved, exited and logged back in.

EDIT: As it turns out, there is more that's messed up. I placed my first panel and had to exit and reload to get it to show up. I placed my second panel and had to do the same thing to have the text show up. However, my first panel had reverted to just showing "Online". So I saved, exited and reloaded AGAIN. That fixed both panels. So I placed my 3rd panel, and had to save, exit and reload. This time, that 3rd panel was fixed, and the first 2 were broken. I had to reload twice more to get all 3 working. Coloring the text works without having to exit and reload. Weird stuff going on here. The same thing is happening with small landing gears. They won't activate until you exit and reload.

Had the same issue. But just grinding it down (just below the red line) and welding it back up fixed it

I'll try reloading. This is my first attemp at TIM and for some reason the LCD panel didn't work.

I am getting this too. It's annoying. When it was udpated to 1.5.4 I had a high hope that this will fix the LCD bug. Apparently not. XD

I've never seen this happen myself so I'm not sure what to suggest, other than to make sure the tag is correct, the block is owned by you, and is set to display Public Text. If you're playing on a server it's also possible that there's some game bug specific to online play, I've only ever tested TIM in single player worlds.

The only way to fix this is to relog. Sometimes it will show right there but sometimes it won't so I had to relog to make it show up. Other than that the script is working beautifully. Many thanks for the wonderful script. ^_^
