Can't get resource out of soil centrifuge

[Turtle McTurtleson]

I can't grab the item without moving the whole centrifuge because the item is flipped

I can't use the centrifuge until I get that out as well... :/

So move the centrifuge and pull it out. Move the platform and pull it out. What's the deal?

[Turtle McTurtleson]

The deal is, that doesn't work

I think I had this happen yesterday with my chemistry lab. I think I saved and closed the game in the middle of it making steel and it cut it in half. I had to make a new chem lab and it worked again, shredded the old one. Make a new centrifuge and see if that works. You might be screwed with that one.

Oh, so I just opened the game again and it's fixed, straight up... I'll just restart my game next time something like that happens c;

The smelter does this from time to time. Sometime a reboot fixes it, but other times it requires making a new smelter/centrifuge/whatever.

Add it to Large Platform B or something with additional storage on it and you won't have an issue. Seen it in another forum post and it worked. Just inconvienent.

oh alright, I'll do that, thank you c:

Ah, I just thought the first thing anyone does is restart the game. Guess we all don't think alike.

Most games nowadays don't require that, not use to that idea anymore, or at least, not the games that I play

Remove a canister... It works as normal then

Sorry Guys - this Soil Centrifuge is BUGGED - nothing 'Normal' about a feature that requires a player to close a game and relaunch if for an intended feature to work properly. Period - not up for debate.
Same as reported earlier by numerous others, When I fabricated the Soil Centrifuge and put it to use, it was not possible to remove the canisters of newly created Resources (The Canisters were pointing downward and inaccessible). After searching for info on this and reading this thread, I saved & exited game, relaunched, and voici The original canisters now appeared pointing UPWARD in the Soil Centrifuge, and were easily accessible.
I am enjoying the H3LL our of Astroneers - but I am running into enough issues that make this feel more like an EA (not ready for prime-time) game. So, before anyone gets their knickers in a twist, I'm not hating on Astroneers, only seeing unexpected behaviour from a full release game. And IMHO, that makes it look like Astroneers was pushed out before it was ready. Cheers

As others have noted, just place it on a platform with additional storage (e.g. large B) and it will automatically offload.

Thx Sean - Maybe I misspoke. I wasn't really looking for a workaround in my comment.
I was making the point that no other Resource device requires the Special Attention & Coddling that this Soil Centrifuge seems to demand. Workarounds are well and good, but they point back at this Dev for lack of attention to detail. The game is stable, runs well, and is great fun. BUT, there are a LOT of bugs........
I could fill a page with one-offs, as well as reproducible glitches. This Soil Centrifuge is just one among many. Astroneer is marketed as full release, yet feels very Early Access.
Anyway, that's all from me - need to get busy - those Nodes & Gateways aren't going to activate themselves - Cheers.
