Assigned Miners Not Dropping Off Cargo

[Krytern]

I have some solid and gas miners assigned to a station. They mine until their cargo is full, then they fly in circles refusing to dock at my station to unload what they mined. If I manually tell them to dock and transfer wares they do it no problem but they won't do it automatically for some reason.

I am playing 3.0B5

are you saying that none of the miners or all of them even though you have storage space left.

Does your station have a purchase order for those resources? If it doesn't have a production module that uses them, then it won't automatically buy them. Your miners will not deliver resources without an outstanding purchase order. They'll fly around and wait for one. You can manually set the requested amounts until your production modules have been constructed.

I can only guess that you have some settings on not optimal parameters... and if your problem is similar you might find my replies in there usefull.

How would you recommend I stop the station from buying the resources from other factions? Lowering the price as much as it will allow me or will blacklisting work?

By the way you're the most helpful developer I've ever seen. You've helped me a few times.

restrict trade with other factions in the logical overview... that one single checkbox in the related wares tab.

No idea how I didn't notice that. I'm also starting to think you don't sleep it is pretty late :P
