The coal generator or conveyor belt bug

[ᴠʟᴇss ᴜsᴇʀ]

The coal generator stopped accepting coal from the conveyor belt
Upd.
Hell yeah, baby! 1.0 hotfix out now

[Ass_Eater187]

yeah mine too

Same here. It'll accept coal for a little while, then stop. It seems to sometimes fix it if you move the coal generator. Rebuilding it on the same spot doesn't seem to work.

Just noticed it also, I was wondering why the power grid showed a drop, then went to check to see the coal just is there but is not accepted

same. i noticed i could delete connection and it would accept 3-5, then stop.

reloading fixed it, but then sometimes it breaks.

Feels good to know i'm not seeing things.
Random buildings will have coal waiting yet show empty. Will start back up second i open the building. Will stop randomly not long after. Building complains about no power as well yet its grid shows power available. Removing power or belts and adding back doesn't appear to help. Manually adding coal appears to jump start building but stops not long after it runs too zero.

Just encountered this myself.

Is this on a new or existing save? I haven’t got that far yet but if it’s affecting new saves, I won’t bother rushing to unlock coal. Thanks

In another thread on the same topic, Munin said that CSS knows about the bug and are planning to fix it.

[TH3R4BB!T]

Cool, better wait for a fix, because around 50% of my coal just stop working randomly

This is what another user wrote in a different thread as a possible workaround for now

Theres a Bug stopping the belts feeding into Coal Power Generators if you interact with them while having no coal in your inventory.
You‘ll need to have coal in your inventory before you interact with the generator.

This way, the coal generator is „ready“ to get coal from your inventory and that’s why they also will get it from the belt.

By interacting with the coal generator without coal in your inventory, you somehow lock it from accepting any coal

I was having the same problem, but accidentally figured out the solution. I'm sure they'll patch it at some point

[jaqueline lorn]

you'd think they'd have caught this in the 5 year early access

How? It never happened in early access.

Still not happening for everyone it seems.
