so, I have a huge complex with 7 assigned TS. out of sudden they decided not to do anything and I am out of Ore, which they usually supply.
I didn't change anything, there's two ore mines one sector away and many more around (50 jumps set).
I canceled manager, reactivated, but no use. checked all options, all look just fine.
all ships has "M" in the ships list, like they are managed at the moment but they just sit on the station and do nothing.
any ideas?
many thanks!
M.

Re: Complex assigned TS suddenly do nothing
Do you have enough money in the station to buy ore ?
Also check if there is any ore in the area to buy that isn't being blocked by the blacklist

Re: Complex assigned TS suddenly do nothing
thank you.
unfortunatelly, all is good. just checked black list and money is there, on the station.
furthermore, I have one small complex that produces ore and silicon and both complexes are in supply loop. if I'm right that complex used to supply main complex with ore and silicon till few hours ago... hard to track since I am in at least middle of the game, 500 mill credits, fleet is there, ships flying around and waiting to be summoned.
just suddenly all supply stopped and buying of ore and silicon for that main complex...
I even put that other races can dock and trade, boosted price but nobody is coming to sell darn ore.

Re: Complex assigned TS suddenly do nothing
ok. just a small update - TSs with home base (traders) started to work again. donno what was the catch but all looks good now.
except... old game, maybe I could ask here right away... I am trying to start an Argon plot. finally I build an accelerator and put it into my TL.
but can not drop it in any system with an asterix (I guess I should put it there), it looks I need to put it in the specific system I have chosen... at least this is what Explorer guild tells me to.
and I can not remember where it is, it was few weeks ago, hah.
I tried I think all systems with an asterix but still 'drop station' option is grayed out, not accessable.
any ideas?
thanksssssssss!

Re: Complex assigned TS suddenly do nothing
You can only place on huperspeed access points that you own. So only the one you got from the explorers guild.
If you check the context menu of each one, it should list the owner, just need to find the one owned by you.
Once you have it, goto the sector with your TL. You need to be in the same sector before you can deploy it

Re: Complex assigned TS suddenly do nothing
All good, thanks.
Problem was that I tried to drop it as any other station but it woudn't work. Finally I noticed it's not in the 'factory' storage of a TL but as any other goods and it needed to be deployed...
Anyways, thanks again! Going to enjoy FL few more weeks till I jump back to X4, new DLC just came out (with strange comments on Steam).
Cheers,
