helium 3 problem.

[wolfpost]

I am trying to do the interstellar connection thing. One base has Helium 3 and the extractor extracts it fine and puts it in the interstellar platform. The ship picks it up and brings it to the other base.

The ship arrives at the other base but it won't take the helium off and put it in my tank so I can use it with my generator. Whats even worse is I have 2 helium extractors right next to the interstellar platform all hooked up and everything but they wont extract any helium. If I manually take the helium off the platform and put it in the storage tank, the extractors start to work because now the generator is fueled. But the extractors don't extract any helium. They are clearly working just not producing. But why is the other helium extractor on the other planet working and this one is not? Or if it would even take the dam helium off the platform to the tank that would be fine as well.

Maybe the wrong tank?

There are liquid and gas tanks.

You can also link directly to the generator if you want.


Extractor -> generator
Extractor -> tank -> generator
Extractor -> tank -> intercom

Thanks. I will check what you suggested as soon as I get a chance. But I don't think thats the issue because if I manually put the helium into the tank it works. Except it dosn't produce any helium in the extractor.

I have an outpost that does function to extract H3, but then a new outpost has the same issue you have - even with full power the extractors do not actually produce any H3. The other extractors (Al, Be) work just fine though. Very frustrating.
