blackhand8657 Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Ok, I think this issue has been brought up before, but I dont remember where I found it. As much as I like the manufacturing concept on here (funny, because I work in production), I actually avoid building a plant because of the fact that any time I've started a product run, usually ammo, if I leave the settlement and come back, the ammo or whatever is being produced ends up in a pile on the floor between the builder and the conveyor/storage. If I stay in the settlement, it's fine but I should be able to leave the settlement and come back and not find a mess, but its like the conveyors dont work right when you're away or something. Has anyone made a fix for this or anything because this is one of those things that makes me reluctant to build an awesome plant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RipVanWinkleX Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 First time I heard of it. But you could always design a plant to where you turn off power to just the manufacturing machines and make sure all the items are dropped off to where they need to go before u leave the settlement.

As far as power goes, I always had them connected to a switch so I can turn them on/off Edited September 20, 2017 by blackhand8657 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RipVanWinkleX Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Do they drop on the floor or just are on the floor when you get there? Random idea, do the conveyor belts load before the items? Like running to the settlement and the game loads the items but not the belts. You could try to change the settings to item distances.
