999 Nuclear Uranium Waste

[EdwardElric6]

I have some water extractors in my aluminum factory but I don't know if it is a bug, that message appears and they block all production

Possibly I'm doing something wrong, or it's some kind of bug.

I'm not using anything radioactive

It's an old bug that suddenly got reintroduced by yesterday's patch. Very annoying.

Yep, have the same from 3 extractors in the red forest. Much annoying. Dismantling and replacing will fix it, but it bugs out after a while

As far as I have been able to deduce it happens when you put it in the rivers of shallow water, in the description it says it but it should be clearer in the extractors, I have been able to put the extractors in zones like kind of lakes and it goes well.

In spite of this I recommend to make the aluminum zone on the top left side of the map near the oil zone.

Is there a workaround?

What description? When hovering my mouse over the 999 waste it says "it's water".

I have 3 extractors in red forest, but one of them kept working, that was set to 60/s.. I changed to all of them outputting 100/s instead last night before I stopped playing. Will be interesting to see if it breaks after loading in today...

UPDATE:
Nope, the 2 that bugged out were still bugged out. This is a REALLY annoying bug.
I moved the pumps, but I should not have to...

нет не исправлена, у меня это до сих пор. Ставлю насос, он работает 10-20 минут, и вода в нем превращается в ЭТО 999

просто не берите воду в этом биоме
в нем радиоактивные глыбы которые рано или поздно загрязнят ваши насосы воды
тяните трубопроводы из других биомов, где вода чистая

It's a bug, apparently one that's been around for ages. In that area, put the extractors in one of the pools, rather than the rivers connecting them or they will continue to bug out.
