Vertical Conveyors not working

[Grimm Spector]

Got them powered with water and animating, but stuff gets part way up them, and then just stops moving and stays on the conveyor...what's the deal?

It can especially happen if you have anything other than a normal conveyor immediately before the conveyor.

There's a bug. Most of the pieces go up fine but a few get stuck in place. You can get them moving by turning off and on the conveyors. If literally none of the items are going up, there might not be enough water pressure.

75% water pressure, you'd think it would be enough given that some of them work fine and the others don't, seems more to depend on the material than the pressure.

I'll try giving them some more room.

This got fixed when you close the game and then update it :P

Nope, sure didn't, there are no updates pending and it's still happening.

I've noticed items getting stuck a couple of times, but nothing particularly frequent. If you have barriers on the side of your conveyors, you can walk on them while the conveyor is on and go unstick the items. I've also found that using centering belts where possible helps quite a bit with keeping things from getting stuck.

Sure, but a build up over time would be fine and I could do maintenance, but they're just not working at all, nothing makes it to the end except the occasional very light tiny nugget.

I can't offer you that much help in that case, then. :C I haven't experienced that at all on my end.
