Transmit partial not working
I have 500 science to transmit from a science lab. It keeps stopping when I run out of electricity. As if I have “require complete” selected. I don’t. But it still just stops every time. Don’t get it.

I used to be able to time warp through this little problem but not now. Just stops and stays stopped.

Are you sure it's actually using the antenna you've got set to allow partial to transmit with?

Also, yeah; it will stop and start as it runs out of power but it should eventually manage.

I only have one antenna. That being said I will double check that. Because it worked like it used to on a different outpost. Might have overlooked something.

‘‘This game is really good at catching you if you forget or don’t notice something.

No only one antenna but it still refuses to transmit partial.

Do you have partial selected? Because it doesn't sound like you do. Make sure you see "Transmit Complete" instead of "Allow Partial" or whatever when you right click the antenna. Seeing 'Transmit Complete" means you're actually transmitting partial. I get confused by that too.

All it says is require complete. If I click that it says allow partial.

This isn’t my first experience with this. Just my first experience where it isn’t working like it should. It ACTS like “require complete” is selected. But it’s not.

It’s a glitch but I don’t know why.

maybe your are not connected with the ksc if so you need a better/more antenas or add a antenna somewhere in between

How about your battery? It sounds to me that that's what's running out of juice.

OMG! I did as Chibbity suggested just for the heck of it and IT WORKED! LOL

I told it to require complete and it worked like allowing partial.

Totally bizarre but yep doing the opposite works.

No clue why this happened. But thanks Chibbity and everyone else for your suggestions.

Lol no problem!

Could be that the button just very unintuitively displays the opposite toggle. So it's telling you what mode you'll switch to, not what mode you are in. Idk I'd have to have the game open to check if it's the same in mine.

Anyways, glad you got it all sorted out!

I think it's actually supposed to be 'opposite'.
