Unpowered elevator

[MadBone12]

I have one lift that won't connect to the electricity and I am unsure why: https://steamcommunity.com/id/madbone12/screenshot/2422446471790169754/ (unlisted screenshot - let me know if you can't see that)

The one on the left works fine. The one on the right is disconnected despite being in the same room. The whole base is fully powered - grid is fine, never dips below 80% capacity. Any idea is what happening with that lift?

Sorry, can't tell. Must be a bug. Maybe it needs to be 1 tile away from the dinning room wall? No idea.

There are 2 ceiling bulbs - one to the left, the other to the right of the unpowered elevator. Both bulbs work, so it's really odd. The only time I saw these sort of issues is when I am building the house. I have the floor down but only parts of the ceiling. Sometimes, devices placed on the floor too far away from a power pole gets unpowered even though the pole is right up against one side of the floor.

I somewhat recreated your build and used two elevators in one room. It worked just fine.
No idea what can cause it for you. I only build the ground floor though.

Perhaps deconstruct and rebuild the second one ? Or give the powerpole a 45 degrees turn by replacing it ?

Thanks for the tips. I did rebuild it but that didn't help. I will say that I used to have stairs there and deconstructed them for that elevator. I had to remove some wood parquet to do it so I wonder if I somehow disconnected the floor through some quirk by deconstructing what was there before. I'll try a couple of other things including replacing the power pole and see if that helps.

The power pole idea worked. I built one on the roof next to the lift and it's powered now. Thanks for the tips.

Unrelated (I think): I had a pop-up message saying that there was something wrong with the game logic related to mods. I have played several games to completion with the current mods and never had an issue. Any one seen that message before?

[Flin Fredstone]

I have. I disabled one or two mods, mostly related to character behavior and i didn't get the message again.

Btw, might be that soon some mods need to get updated.

Ok thanks. I reloaded without saving and had no message that time. Everything seems ok for now. This run is almost over anyway - crafting fuel to build the escape rockets while fortifying my base to manage the attacks.
