What version of the game are you playing?

Is this a save from a different version of the game?

Personal que (green) and station ship construction que are 2 different things.

im not playing this game anymore until they fix that issue , not gonna put 30 hrs in the game just buying engines parts and selling it to wharf and hope one ship get build :steambored:

Same problem here ordered L transport on Argon....hull parts needed +-8500ks.... but shipyard have 715/715pc(second shipyard 920/920)
No new requests for materials from station (probably because 715/715 = full ?) checked trade offers and Storage trade offers no requests ... so im basically stuck here.

Without any chance to build it and without chance to cancel production.so my 14m are lost right now

FINALLY! ... It I did finally find the '1572 missing engine parts' in the upgrade screen when on the craft... I delivered 1572 + 250... waited... nothing
I deleivered 1580 + 820 ( the wharf wouldn't by more) waited nothing
I delievered 1580 + 268 + 268 ... waited.... nothing
I delivered another 1580 + 720 that was in the other ship from the other 680 partial sale (or whatever it was) . Finally! My ships started completing.

Be nice to know how many other ships in queue were also waiting.

meanwhile I refit/built ships in other wharfs all over... This one in Holy Vision borders xenon space, so I think they keep losing ships and using all their supplies.
where did you find the engine parts? in which factory?

[Beta 4]Fixed shipyards not stockpiling enough resources for ships with large amounts of deployables, and miscalculating resource allocation for other wares.

Test it this would be a cristmas gift for you

anyway the best way is to find Argon mainbase that has all the stuff required.. after that, build a trade ship that commerce engines, hulls, antimat, and energy cells to the shipyard in order to keep its cargo full of stuff needed to build ships. Second, build a recon ship that explore all the Argon region in order to help the trade ship to have less way for trading among the nearest facilities. For me this helps me alot, wish help you too! cheers

"where did you find the engine parts? in which factory?"
:) From my own base....

Can search on the map just put in 'engine parts' and zoom out to find engine parts factories.

Hi all, if my station is not building anymore because I paid a hired help to do the build, and I have a builder myself that is hovering way far away, expanded mode and not reacting to anything I want, can't take over. So I added this pier, and two habitats for personel.... It is not progressing.
Made me think, I have a few cargoships, lets take them into the equation and make then earn their living buying stuff I need for the build of my station... What action should I let him do in behaviour??? In X3-Rebirth there was a possibility to let building ships supervise or instruct cargo ships, for delivering needed material... How is that in X4?

Next question is: What is my Albatros Vanguard doing at a not visible item on the map, a build storage that is telling me that it is building at 11%
(and it hasn't gone further)

Probably you didn't leave funds to buy the resources or the builder didn't reach the destination yet if you need to understand better how the building works to solve the problem Check out this guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0DgSCCp2AF0

If you have a building ship by your own you need to assign it to the station in order that it will start building.
- Select the builder that you own in the map
- Right-click the station icon
- Select assign as a builder (last option)

PS: If you already hired a builder you cant switch it until he completed the building. The % of construction can be stopped as well if your station finished the building materials.

Thanks, HTF Games Studio, nice reaction but I already did all those steps, I am only an X4 beginner.:steamfacepalm:
Funds were delivered, but after the initial build was finished, I added finally a pier and some habitats for personel. Then I screwed a bit up, because the build did not progress, went far away for a while and came back and nothing changed. Finally I destroyed old builder, bought new one, this time with full capacity, ordered him to finish the station, yet he went to the same build storage, flapped his wings out and is still staying there, no activity, no raising of percentage, nothing, I prob. can't take this ship over, it will not allow me. (My own ship????)

I did look at your videos, but it was really hard to understand the slavic-english at some points, if we are this concentrated in how a video is doing something I actually already know, It confuses a bit, long enough to lose concentration, sorry for that, but I really like the leaders they made with the dusty computer, very original......

So, if I still keep stuck, I might think to start all over again....

Hi all, I wentinto a cargoship and sought out claytronics production station, found one, bought a bunch, went back to my station.... There I could not sell/transfer the items, so I went to the Albatros, landed on it, same story, I could not sell/transfer either there, so as a last attempt I docked on the build storage close to the extended Albatros (you know, with his four wings spread out) and even there I could do nothing....
Now, what is going wrong here?
