DESCRIPTION

This refinery will drain all ores except ice from every vehicle connected to it. The ores will the be refined into ingots, which will be stored in large cargo containers.

only two types of resources can be exchanged:
- ores (input only)
- ingots (output only)

The refinery is airtight. It can be used on any planet/moon/asteroid. It has a medium sized hangar/garage where you can keep vehicle or ship.

HOW TO USE

example:
- bring ore with a truck or ship (for example my Badger Mining Vehicle)
- connect to either the platform connectors, the garage connectors or the tower connector.
- all ores will be drained and processed automatically

HINT:
place the refinery as deep into the ground as possible or else some of your ground vehicles may damage themselves because of the steep ramp (see pictures above)

- FUEL REFINERY

The positioning screenshots issued a challenge.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2803101152 I do believe I may have placed mine with the right offset relative to the surface.

Fixed missing junction.

Under the medbay is a junction, and under that junction is a straight conveyor tube that is not connected, Replace with a curved conveyor to hook up to the system.

Oh this sounds weird. I don't have much time this month but I will try to look into this the next week.

Did you check there's no damaged conveyor tube somewhere? Or maybe another sorter is pulling the materials into another container, keeping the materials from going the right way?

just some first thoughts.

I have a weird issue and am not sure if it is a problem with the world itself of the build. I spawned it into my survival world in space on an asteroid. As per Drake's instructions I sunk it. The result was that it was about 2/3 deep into the stone in places of which I dug out with my drill. I extended the tower conveyors with a connector at a junction near the top horizontally so that my ship can dock. The refineries process ore as usual, however problem is nothing pushes to the cargo boxes. Everything both in and out is going out to the connectors on the platform and garage. I don't know what the issue maybe. I've tried troubleshooting the sorters. My ship is running Isy's Inventory. But not the station. Maybe it's that.

It is PCU not "CPU."
