Nanite Control Factory - Automated Construction (Not working - Old Version)
Malohkan 28 Apr, 2016 @ 1:38pm
Status: InvalidTargets
I placed on my station a conveyor tube out to a 5x5 of conveyor cubes, and on top of that a 5x5 of collectors, so that I can drop off things to the station without actually docking. The nanites constructed 1 of the collectors completely, but now a light purple one flies in, and a dark purple one flies out, and nothing else happens. It's flying back and forth from the collector it completed. When I look at the nanite factory, it says Status: InvalidTargets and that it has 0 active nanites. What does this mean?

I was doing some updates, and you may have gotten an invalid version. Please restart your world after you read this and try again.

I restarted the DS, forcing some updates first. Nanites worked for a while longer, but I checked on it again after about an hour and saw Status: InvalidTargets again.

Happens to me quite often. Only restart helps, but since its dedicated server, I cant really restart it. Only thing that helps, is complete deconstruct and reconstruct of the Nanite Factory. Disabling Factory doesnt help. Some "Reset" button in the Nanite Factory settings would be nice to avoid such a nuisance.

I also get the "InvalidTargets". I grind down a block (lets say normal armor block) and place a diffrent one( heavy armor block) at the position and NCF gives me the error and stops working.
Reloading my game solves it and my guess is that the NCF wants to repair the first block. but didn't recognise the block change.

I want to second the "Reset" button idea. I think that would be a valuable addition.

Again, the same thing happens to me quite often when I try to "help" the factory with priming projector blueprints. The most recent freeze gives following status:

Last invalid target reasons:
Missing Components (Construction)
Missing Components to start projected block (Projection)

All required items were present, so it most likely was some script crashing. And once more, a hard "Reset" button would be nice, to completely wipe the queue.

Invalid targets too, for me I get like 238 cleanup targets and some ridiculous construction target number even though there are no items anywhere and all ships in area are repaired
