Mixing Machine Bug | Can't Leave Items Stuck

[TrapDeer]

Have sorta a 'game breaking' bug - first one I ever encountered.
Essentially have a mixing station mk2 and I tried mixing some weed with something else and backed out of it, then when I came back to it it doesn't show anything but I can't back out or do anything else. Escape and nothing works. Restarted game still persist.

I was going to try to move it but it reads items are inside of it (despite when I open/use it) nothing is shown and the game just frozen there with me not being able to do anything.

any fix or suggestions?

Seems to not be working on beta or normal branch. Fully broken only this mixing machine

Just curious, but did you try picking it up and placing it back down before trying to use it again, since the update?

I've seen a few complaints from people about certain placed objects getting sort of messed up in different ways. Picking it all up and placing it back again should fix it, I would think....

It wont let me pick it up because there's items inside. I guess I started a mix. So items are inside, but when I open it - it doesn't read any items are inside and it glitches out. I'm about to try it again shortly, but last night was completely broken.

When I would load the game it will be running the machine as if a mixing batch just started, then it will stop normally, but no matter what when I open it - it glitches out.

My guess is something with the save or game state isnt registering the items in the machine and when I back out it has some error handle and doesnt register key presses or game states. The console "~" doesnt work nor does the escape, and requires me to hard stop it.

My goal to fix is, fire the botanist (at safe house so only 1 worker allowed as of now), and get a mover and see if the mover can move items from mixer and then I will pick up the mixer and place back down to see if it fixes it. Because I cant move any of the items from it and cant pick it up due to items inside. If that doesnt fix it then there's no hope until a patch or if I find some weird workaround. its only this mixer and not any other mixers.

I think I created the issue by like adding items to mixer and starting it quickly and backing out with "escape" key - I dont know as it doesnt make sense.

@TrapDeer that was my thought was to try and use a worker to move the items. I had problems with workers not moving items to shelves and most of the time it was just the game didnt like the spot i put the shelf in and had to rearrange things, or had the same issue where i can't click into a station. but most of the time a restart would fix it.

just an idea. i dont know if it will work.

go to the place with the bugged machine and remove all other machines of the same type. like all mixing 1 or mixing 2 machines. keep them in your inventory or put them in a storage rack. save and exit.

press win + R and in the console type "%userprofile%\appdata\locallow\TVGS\Schedule I" without ""
here go in the folder "save". here should be a folder with the "id of your steam account".
inside are folders with "SaveGame_1" "SaveGame_2" what ever save place you have selected up to 5.

go in the save game folder and next to "Properties".
now open the folder with the bugged machine example the folder "Motel Room" and the folder "Objects".

now "create a new folder" just as backup and move the folder with the last remaining machine in it. or delete it. now reload the game this machine should now be deleted. if the game works without any problem you can delete the new created folder. if you get problems move the broken machine back from your created folder. but it shouldn't.

maybe its possible to "repair" the machine by editing the file but i dont have the problem so i cant test it and wont guide anything in this way.
