Can't perform extra construction step on Reactor Type X / Reactor Type V #26

Closed dmfrodrigues closed 2 years ago

dmfrodrigues commented 2 years ago

TL;DR: Can build Reactor Type X but my pawns won't complete the extra construction step.

OS: Windows Rimworld version: v1.3.3072 Rimatomics version: v1.7.2439

I've already researched Reactor Type A and I saw my pawns completing the extra construction step on the Reactor Type A (which is reactor Alpha). That reactor is working just fine.

I'm mid-way into researching Reactor Types X and V, and I'm on the research step where I'm supposed to build a Type X or Type V reactor.

I've managed to build it and changed its ID to Beta, but I can't complete the extra construction step, so it just stays forever looking like that extra construction step was not completed (which it wasn't, as I didn't see any pawns completing that extra step).

When I go to the reactor console I get this:

So it says it is not built, but I can still designate slots to be filled. They are indeed filled with rods (somehow), but when I start the reactor and (try to) pull out the rods up to 100% nothing happens (i.e., the reactor does not work).

Curiously, when I build a new Type A reactor, I don't have to go through the extra construction step. I'm not sure if that was as expected, but I surely didn't expect it.

Using the most recent version from master branch (commit e7f1ca6), I get a similar behavior, except when I open the console, instead of being able to designate slots and raise/lower rods, there is nothing (which I suppose is the expected behavior); nonetheless none of my pawns are completing the extra construction step.

I'm using versions from this repo only, not from Steam.

I'm using some other mods, tho I believe they should not be interfering.

Hi again! So I've entered god mode and reset all Rimatomics research. Also disabled a few mods that do not have anything to do (except maybe RocketMan, I'll get to that later).

I've used god mode to research everything instantly until reaching the same point I was at before. And guess what now I can complete the extra construction step. So I believe it had something to do with something not being remembered so Rimatomics was struggling to allow me to complete that extra step.

Now back to RocketMan: I added Rimatomics to an existing savefile, and some time later added RocketMan. I am not sure as I do not have any evidence, but I believe there is a slight chance that RocketMan messed with something that Rimatomics needs.
