Strangely the XL Shipyards in PMC, Heart of Albion & JonFerco build XL Ships without any problem, witnessed them building Arawn's which are the worst offenders in my game, they build, undock and jump; totally shocked, they always have the problem which you described.

I haven't tried Darn Hot Air yet though, i'll test this out and build a ship.
I'm not sure what XL Ships they build other than CV's as they no longer build the Arawn, Scaldis and the Taranis ships.

I had same problem again at Gemstone Manufacture shipyard... It looks like after I buy ship, for some reason ship is finished but shipyard wont register that ship is finished. I had problem with one of mu ships orders wore grayed out and nothing wouldn't work(just follow me command). I went back to Gemstone Manufacture and that same building area where I build that ship was stuck... There is nothing inside but I cant build anything and station have everything to build...

Same problem here with the shiyard in Omicron Lyrae.

I ordered a Rahanas at the small terminal: no problem.

After that I went to the big terminal, ordered a construction vessel (for building a new station), all resources available, seller took my money. Nothing happened. I scanned the shipyard to above 90%. All resources seemed to be available, the storage was full.

Travelled to DeVries and back to the shipyard in OL but couldn't find just one single glimmering pixel at the XL area that would suggest that the building process has started. Docked at the station, looked at the sellers list of resources: nothing needed.

So (for me) no building of OL stations is possible any more. A new bug? Maybe especially concerning to XL ship building?

This is game braking bug for me I can play anymore because I cant build stations .... Also I put 50h in to this save and im not going to be restarting again.... (back to X3 XRM until this is fixed)

From a game started with 1.23, I have built 2 CVs at the HOA SY at Gemstone Mfg, and have no problem whatsover. On the 2nd build, there was a shortage of Cargo Lifter drones (show zero), but I just wait for a few minutes, and the SY have produced 100 of them.

I believe you can no longer build CV at Darn Hor Air any more with 1.24. I think you can only build Succellus (sp, at work not at game currently) and another ship at the XL shipyard. At the other SY in DHA, you can only build the 2 freighters whose names have slipped from my memory (Lipton or something like that, one is energy/container, the other one is Bulk/Liquid iirc).

It's not that... I know about those changes... The problem is I go to shipyard and I want to build ship and build order is grayed out... There is nothing being build and nothing is on the way... Other building areas on that shipyard are working without any problems. Ill show you some pic (give me sec )

EDIT:

Here two pic of shipyard that is not building anything and nothing is on the way...

Strange, read this, flew to Darn Hot Air, ordered a Sucellus and checked outside to see it was being build.

Update: next stop the big berth at the SY in Eternal Dawn. Ordered a Taranis, again with all weapons, 60 welder and interceptor drones, and checked outside to see it's being build. However, after 30 min. the ship was still at 25% construction although the SY had all resources.

This is what I got

A grayed-out build button usually indicates that another ship is being build, i.e. the berth is occupied.

I know that's why I showed you that other pic that building area is clear and nothing on the way... I think ships that I cant give any orders to is probably connected with shipyard problem ... Ship was done but I don't think it was registered at shipyard that was finished... It shows same thing just when you first build ship and until ship leave building area you cant give it any orders...

[euclid]

Yes, as long as it is not fully moved out of the construction berth and has reached it's parking location you neither can order commands nor order another ship.

Cheers Euclid

Exactly I took my ships (Midir) from Albion to DeVries and shipyard still thinks that my (Midir) is still parked inside of building area and ship still thinks that is parked in shipyard... About XL Darn Hot Air I think it was one of CV that got it stuck (before they limited stations)... I was building to many ships and same time and that is what I think cased that bug

[euclid]

Thanks Nikola515

There is a problem also with the missing resource display. A report has been filed and I'm sure your uploaded saved game will help the investigation.

Cheers Euclid

I am having same issue with shipyard in OL/ED, all options at xl yard greyed out, no ship being built, no resource list showing. have been back to OL lots of times, always the same. and I need a bofu factory, ( a CV) as there seems to be a shortage of it.
I have been to every bofu factory in OL, and none for sale. and no ships carrying it.
(and I have 2 fuel stations that need it in OL)
I know it could be a soy bean or plankton shortage causing no bofu, not checked that much, but plenty of spice around.

I managed to recreate same bug again... I was building CV in Darn Hot Air... And after ship was completed (it didn't leave building area yet) I docked and give it architect and than I left zone... I come back and ship was not in building area but when I docked to talk to ship dealer order was grayed out again (that's where I saved game) I went to another zone and CV was following me there and when I come back again it was same... Nothing in building area and nothing was being build but orders wore grayed out and shipyard was stuck... Here is fresh save file right when it happened (I didn't edit ships or anything)

I managed to reproduce same bug again But his time I observed it more closely.... First I went to build my CV and I was waiting outside for it to build... Ship was completed but it wouldn't move....( it takes time 3min I think... That's what one of EGO Devs told us in beta). Anyway I was waiting for almost 20 minutes and ships was still stuck... I added architect left sector and shipyard was stack again (ship is in deferent zone and nothing in the way but shipyard wont build anything) Also ships orders wore grayed out too I think this problem when they added drones to build ships... Drones get stuck and ship wont move and whole thing gets messed up


Edit: I was trying to do it again but this time ship didn't get stuck??? The only deferent thing I did is I didn't take any Kill Boss missions....(when building ships) I like to kill some time when waiting Not sure if that can have any effect on shipyard??? ( respawning cap ships in same area)

[Litauen]

Same thing happened to me. Stopped playing, waiting for fix.

Maybe possible to edit the save file to fix it somehow?
