4.1 Bug - Player wharf adds ships to queue but never starts construction - Resolved, cheat issue.

Post by Darth Stark » Wed, 20. Oct 21, 18:42

[Edit] I figured out the issue after googling something related. Cheat Engine adds small and medium ship fabricators that are apparently in the game files but aren't intended for use, and these are what I was trying to use. The solution was to use the correct S/M fabricators.

Version: 4.1 English

Modifications: Better target monitor, SirNukes Mod Support APIs, Reaction Force, Fly-by Lockbox, Faster Crew Leveling, Better Kill Credit, Fly-by looting, Sector Explorer, Cheat Menu (used to add money and make a ship invincible, no other changes made)

Start: Young Gun (I think)

Problem: I constructed a Wharf to build small and medium ships, however whilst the wharf will accept my orders the ships never begin construction, they just sit in the queue. There have been no NPC ship orders, although they are able to repair at the station. I can repair and change the loadout of my ships, but not construct new ones. Things I have tried/checked so far include:

I have a station manager.
I have a ship trader.
I have the resources needed.
I have all of the blueprints required.
I have over the max efficiency workforce.
I have 50 construction drones.
I have 2 small and 2 medium argon ship fabricators.
I have 4 million in storage which is mostly full of the materials required.
I have blueprints for flares, satellites, etc.
I've replaced the ship trader.
I've checked the build method and it's set to universal.

I initially posted to the X4 subreddit (link) and after trying all of the suggestions there it was suggested this might be a bug.

Thanks in advance!

Update to add I tried it with all of the mods uninstalled and the problem persisted.

I'm a bit confused. One post was edited to say it's sorted (how? - this may assist others) but a later post still says the problem persists.

Sorry probably did things in an awkward order. I removed the google drive link and edited it to say why I removed it, and then made an edit to the original post to say it was sorted and why - I put it at the start of the post so the first thing people will see is the solution.
