Need help with a production

Harrison Fork · Post by **Harrison Fork** » Tue Sep 06, 2022 9:56 pm

hi,

I get the warning "Unable to add source storage" when the xml of my production is loaded.

Furthermore the input goods I put into the production are shown in the UI with the right amount and I can activate the production line but no goods are consumed and the output goods filllevel stays at 0. But surprisingly the correct pallets are ejected from time to time.

Does anyone have an idea what the problem could be? I compared the xml several times with working production and can not figure out any difference or error in the xml.

Tanks in advance!

Peter

Is this a custom goods?
Is this a map or a placeable?

Hi, I defined some custom filltypes and the production building is a placable. In another mod ("Potato Processing") I already worked with several custom product without a problem but I can not figure out the difference between the working production and this faulty one...

Hard to be sure without the xml but as the error isnt completely terminal, my best guess is you have a very minor typo in a filltype definition or in the use of a filltype. I would be looking at spacing or capitalisation of anything related to the inputs of that production

Yeah for sure you need more information. Maybe you can see what I do not see ...

These are the fill types defined in my fillTypes.xml:

Only thing that I can see is a bit of a long shot.
<capacity fillType="FISH_FEED" capacity="2000" />
<capacity fillType="BABY_CARP" capacity="2000" />
<capacity fillType="YOUNG_CARP" capacity="4000" />

You have a bunch of spaces in the capacity section of the Storage definition. I would delete them and see if it makes a difference. I have seen multiple spaces in an expression cause weird stuff before

eg change it to
<capacity fillType="FISH_FEED" capacity="2000" />
<capacity fillType="BABY_CARP" capacity="2000" />
<capacity fillType="YOUNG_CARP" capacity="4000" />
