Currently working on an alpha 15 version with a new air system

Upon activation from a clean startup, I get an error that reads "Found no usable data when trying to get defs from file WorkTypes.xml. Upon loading in to the game, the only material available to build walls from is Wood. I cannot change the material type, and it throws a comment at the top saying "You have no usable materials from which to build this."

the workTypes is ok its just because im not using the contents anymore, and have you tried opening the materials supply crate to get some materials before building?

That was the problem. Maybe put a disclaimer in the description? I tend to plan out the walls of my base right at the start before I do anything else, and I am sure I am not the only one that was confused by that.

Thank you so much for your fast response.

i added a quick start guide to the description, maybe i'll add a tiny amount of aluminium next to wreckage just to default the material types to it

When i go to build a solar inverter it completes the job and then the tile turns into nothing instead of a inverter, tried turning on god mode via dev mode and it doesn't spawn no matter what combination of setup i try.

Right now i can only gurantee that prepare carefully will work.
Can you give me a list of all the mods you are running, people keep getting that error with a certain mod and it makes no sense because the inverter is just a building with no code and im just checking that it exists

I turned off a bunch of unnecessary mods and it seems to be working now, it could have been any of the following causing it:

Furnace
Auto Seller
Talons Faction
PetMute
Miniaturisation
Medieval Times
ED-Embrasures
Hoarfrost V1.2
MoreLesserMechnoids
Improved Infestation
Double Population]
Clean Before Clearing Snow
Wildlife Tab
FishIndustry
Numbers
Solar Apocalypse and Rogue Planet
[sd] chicken nest

oh well i dont have the time to hunt down problems with every little mod out there so all i can recommend is sticking with prepare carefully and basic stuff like hair packs and furniture and stuff that doesnt impact any game mechanics.

If you do happen to randomly find out what it is please let me know then i take a crack at fixing it

Just released an update, view the change notes for details

New tactic to solve the problem of radiation in deep space, just kill them before the launch...

Ok thats a bug i'll fix it quick and push a patch, thanks for posting about it

Edit: Fixed

It's complaining when loading. No other mods loaded, just yours.

"Config error in WakeUp: Is equipment but has no CompEquippable"
"Could not load UnityEngine.AudioClip at beeps/computerbeep_64 in any active mod or in base resources".
"Grain couldn’t resolve: Clip not found in beeps/computerbeep_64"


Also hit a save game breaking compatibility issue with your latest update. It started acting like there were two versions of the same peep reserving the same beds/machines/etc, some of them started sleeping on the floor unless I rebuilt their beds each night, and some machines became reserved and couldn’t be cleared, even if I used debug to kill the peep.

Still, looks interesting, just If you're going to break save games let folks know. Thanks.

that's quite odd, i have been testing non stop and didn't run into a bug like that and i constantly reload a save with each change rather than making new games, and i just loaded the steam version and the computerbeep file isn't missing, Maybe some other process is reserving it or something, i'll change it to an ogg in the next patch

i had a problem. after a while the colonists started to get burn (solar radiation), while there were no events, and the colonists continued to receive burn even under a mountain, and so I started to play 3 times and have always had this problem
