You mean the build planner? The entry vanishes when you've picked up all the components. What you did with them after picking them up the game doesn't track, that's your business.

The other possibility I can think of that fits is you're looking at the small-block menu, there's no small-block normal jump drive.

Oh crap, my ignorance is showing..

I don't know what a build planner is. I went to the assembler and clicked on "jump drive" and fed it for days. I honestly don't know if it made everything. It stopped and nothing was queued up anymore so I was going to drag "jump drive" to my tool bar to try to start to build it and this is what I get.

Ah. You can't actually build a jump drive yet, you have to make a gravity generator functional before you can do jump drives. Hit the progression tab and you'll see the jump drive is faded out.

Hi, do you play with "Block Progreesion" enabled ?

The Jump Drive block may need to be unlocked following the tree in Progression Tab.

EDIT
i don't like that feature so I always disable the option named "Block Progreesion" in advanced world settings.

Yeah, as Dan2D3D said, you probably have progression enabled. IIRC you need to first assemble an operation Gravity generator before you unlock Jump Drive.

Thanks. I did like you said and it won't load now. Says its an experimental mode save now. That not how I was playing it so I am not sure what happened.

[Dan2D3D]

Just enable "Experimental" in the Options button from main menu if it needs that game mode.

"Experimental" mode is the best when we play Local especially to unlock all world settings, be able to add Mods and a lot more cool options.

The Default Mode is used by server admins to control the server Perfo by limiting players and be fair in PVP that is not needed when we play local alone or with a few friends.

Oh! OK. Then experimental mode for single player then!? Ok. It has a bunch of warnings attached so... Yeah, I want cool stuff..

[Dan2D3D]

Warning is normal because "Experimental" mode unlock the option named "Block limit" in world advanced settings and disabling the "Block limit" you may go orver the "Physical Shape" limit we can see in Info Tab of grid Terminal.

-> We lose our creation going over the "Physical Shape" limit, so absurdly Huge station or Huge ship become a "Ghost" where the character can go through blocks and nothing can be done to fix because it's the grid limit the game can support.

That said, don't worry because that "Grid size limit" / "Physical Shape" limit is very Huge and you will probably never reach.

So would you say most advanced long term players of offline mode use Experimental mode then?

[Dan2D3D]

Yes, especially to disable the option named "Block limit" because it's locked in the default mode.

A lot of Public Severs have "Block limit" enabled in a way we have to join with at least 6 players in our Faction to have enough available PCU to build Respawn stations on all planets, moons and space.
+
Going Pudlic server to play alone you will be able to build one station and a few small ships for one planet only.
=
Very short gameplay playing alone in a world having Block limit enabled.

Hey, thanks for your time and input!
