Automatic feeder
Hi guys. I ran into a problem with an automatic feeder. When I try to build one, it says I don't have enough components and can build 0, although I do have all the necessary components, and my base produces a lot more energy than needed. Could anybody please give me any advice on how to solve this issue?
BTW I can build anything else, it's just the feeder that's not working

Don't bother right now. It's probably bugged with the new update. Filling the feeder is also crashing the game as well.

Yup, I can't refill mine or the game will just kick me out. Did it 5 times, the game crashed every time.

16 November 2024, this is still bugged. Same symptom as OP, but it's particularly annoying because one of the Nexus quests requires it.

It was fine when I did one of the Build an Outpost missions from the Nexus a couple weeks ago that required the Automatic Feeder and the Livestock unit. Both of the units require a few non-standard components to build.

Working fine for me as well. I have 4 different bases set up with feeders and collectors so I can get eggs, milk and honey.

New base for the nexus mission. I had all the components. They were all checked off, but it still said it was missing components. I tried placing one at one of my existing bases, still no joy. I even doubled up on the number of each item, nope. I ended up abandoning the mission. So I don't know what might be different from yours to mine. Could be my server doesn't have the fix yet or something.

My existing feeders etc seem to work fine. It's building a new one that's problematic.

Just tested by building another feeder at each of the bases where I already had ones. That too is working fine in my game.

I think I figured it out. In my case, it's not that the feeder is bugged. It's that the mission from the Nexus was to build an outpost on a planet that it deemed "habitable" that was actually an airless planet. I tried to build a feeder on another planet that couldn't support life, and I got the same problem.

I tested building another feeder on one of my existing bases, and that worked, so yeah, I think it was just the mission accepting airless planets as "habitable" and then requiring a feeder etc. #RESOLVED#
