Hi guys,
I made a factory that is producing the primary resources of the Terran economy in "The Void" using L miners. As the void has a lot of resources, I set all miners to only mine in the Void.
It made a lot of money until recently, now all gas miners claim that there are "No resources found in the allowed sector". I mean, none of them mine anything somehow, it is not like some of them are working and others are not. None of them are.
Weirdly enough the resource probes that I placed all over the Void tell me that there is still plenty of resources left, Methane dropped from 0.33 km³ max to 0.31 km³.
What am I not getting here? Are the resources somehow already depleted and I misunderstand what a resource probe actually tells me? Do these resources not regenerate over time and a sector can fully run out?
I have made screenshots of the miners and resource probes, maybe you see something here that I don't. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Here is the logical station overview, I opened Hydrogen as an example. It is basically the same for Methane and Helium.

Re: The Void - Resources depleted?
Are the resource probes showing resources where the miners are going? It is possible to seriously deplete resources in one volume while other volumes with resources exist in the sector just out of the miners' scanner ranges. Another potential issue is if the available resources are inside or close to hazards in the Void that the miners or their captains are avoiding or refusing to cross.
The other thing is that the Logical Overview shows no production modules available that will use the resources and so the manager may be loath to gather 'useless' resources.
It also shows that your solid/liquid storage allocations may need some attention.

Hi Alan,
Thanks a lot for the response, I found the root cause of the issue. I messed up:
I set up an Alarm yesterday for Xenon XLs jumping to into 6 defined systems at the border so I can send a task force in to get rid of them. However, I somehow have overwritten my "StayInTheVoid" rule instead. So miners were complaining about not finding Methane in Hatikva's Choice I.
Still thanks for the help!
