Cold Storage >>> Factory Connection >>> Grocery Store not working if Distro Office delivers to storage

[ilenisaatio]

Right, so, I found this thread from 2019 while looking for a solution

https://steamcommunity.com/app/784150/discussions/0/3159763879063895563/

and the problem didn't get solved there. Trying out changes to how things were set up, I found out, that when I have a distribution office deliver meat to the cold storage, the store doesn't get meat from the storage if the resource pull would drop the fill percentage of the storage below what the distro office is set to fill it to.

When set so that I have a dedicated line delivering meat to the storage, the problem doesn't appear. In that case, when the grocery store's cold storage drops to 0,25 tons, it just pulls from the attached cold storage regularly along the factory connection.Immediately if I set the distro office delivery, the automatic refill of the store's storage stops at the 70% mark I have set the distro office to keep the separate cold storage. After that, citizens stop getting meat and start complaining.

I might've been able to explain that in an even more complicated way.

Anyway, I hope someone gets help from that and the devs can patch it.

Never had a problem with cold storage with DO delivering meat. Do you use vanilla buildings or modded ones ? I used a 4k modded cold storage and nobody was complaining.

If i understand you correctly normally if meat is only delivered to the meat storage using a regular line the store will be able to pull from the storage, but if you set it to be filled by a distribution office it will not pull below the percentage set to fill by the DO?

Yeah, those are vanilla assets. Out of curiosity, I started a game just for testing things out as I had a cloud save for the original game. This was just local. No problem with the same settings. Started a new game with a cloud save. No problems. So there's something else going on here.

Exactly But apparently only on that particular game despite which manual or autosave I use.

You should send the save to the dev: https://www.sovietrepublic.net/support

Yeah, I'll send the save.

Now, here's a new observation. Just because, I installed the game on Linux and played through Proton (on the same computer). No issues. The meat flows as it should. Come back to the Windows installation, and the issue is there again.
