"Opening the portal failed. Wait until the rift station cool down.“

This thing stuck my campaign final mission, have I miss something??

I just beat the game tonight, and this happened to me on my first failed attempt. In my case, it was the sudden massive power drain (10,000 energy a second) from the Rift station, coupled with the huge power draw when a base is under extended attack (especially if you go nuts with plasma towers like I did). I burned through 1.5m energy in just over two minutes and It bottomed out my energy grid, and that caused the rift portal to reset.

Make sure you have at least +10k excess power production and 1.5m+ (full) energy storage before starting the final rift activation.

Ok, i will try it, This problem stuck me 1 week already.

[tonghongchieh]

I have at 13k excess power production and 3.2m+ (full) energy storage but still failed at 25/100 progress... I think I have met a big bug!

[tonghongchieh]

And I have sold many laser tower to save my power during the progress.

Make sure you have a buttload of fusion power stored in liquid storage for it to use.

(it says to do that in the voicelines the first time you fail)

[Omanaman]

Check the supply of coolant (or water) to the gantry and (if using ordinary gantry stabilizers) to the stabilizers. A second feed delay and you will get a portal restart.

[tonghongchieh]

ya, i have each level 3 liquid storage for each fusion power. ( 1 : 1 )

without forgetting about cooling the thing

[Dalby]

for me it was the lack of super charged plasma, you need more than 15k, i had a steady flow but not enough, i had 20 million power and was wondering wtf is it failing all the time ;) just some ionizers and those tons or vats to fill up extra to cover..

[Ambient]

it takes A LOT of power to keep it going. Like triple whatever you are doing it with now.

[jegers]

it tells you that if you run out of the resources it needs than it will restart so just make sure you have like 5-10x the resources it needs

Just wanted to add on, I was having the same issue. Error out at 25%. I followed the advice in this thread and tripled everything going in, from water to plasma. Then shield generators on the lines going to every stabilizer. Finally beat it
