Playtime and electric furnace.
Hiya can anyone help please, every time i have a playtime with someone i seem to start it early and i cannot play it is always grayed out and cannot press on it.
Other problem is trying to get an electric furnace. I have given petra 20 disc waited 6 days and given her more than 20 disc waited 6 days and still she has not given me the electric furnace diagram is there another way to obtain it. Thanks for any help.

Also, in case you aren't aware, the Electric Furnace only processes aluminum bars and magnesium powder. It is NOT a direct upgrade of the Industrial Furnace. Some people (myself included my first playthrough) are fooled into thinking it is. If that helps the urgency any...

Wait until the time your date is suppose to start, like if it starts at 18:00 wait until 18:00 click on the person and select start date and it should work just fine.

I can't remember how many discs it takes for the furnace but you are probably giving her to many so try 5 or 10 discs

1st, make sure you're not mounted on your horse/llama.

2nd, according to the MTaP Fan-Wiki[mytimeatportia.fandom.com], there are only 4 blueprints that require 20 discs; of those 4, only 3 require 6 days of research. If you have the Recycling Machine, then you only need another 20 discs. If you don't have the Recyling Machine, then you have a 50% chance of waiting 6 days for the Furnace. Restarting the day could help.

I seem to be getting everything but the electric furnace, I need hard aluminum to progress further in the game but so far I have the recycling machine and the two combined machines so hopefully the next time I'll get the electric furnace after 6 days
