I found that if a building is in the mining area it can cause that error.

judos commented 8 years ago

Thanks for the report. I guess you have used version 0.1.1. What building are you placing there? Please provide a save game + mods such that I can reproduce the issue and fix it.

VaelophisNyx commented 8 years ago

I don't have a save with it atm, but I can tell you how to reproduce it hopefully: Find any ore that is under a building, have more drones than can be used in the mining area and place the mining site to where the area includes the ore beneath it(or a building at all). I think it tries to mine the building but it doesn't have a "stack" assigned to it.

VaelophisNyx commented 8 years ago

Also it sometimes ignores things like power poles and belt.

judos commented 8 years ago

Hmm I tried this but that didn't cause the error. However with 0.1.3 the ore will now longer be mined below any building/entity. This should also resolve this issue :)

VaelophisNyx commented 8 years ago

Ah. I was actually using 0.1.2 but had used 0.1.1 so I knew of the error. if I encounter it I'll update this issue with a save and mod list.

judos commented 8 years ago

Ok great. I will close it for now.

judos commented 8 years ago

The issue is reproducible for Ore's that have mining results of which the item name differs from the entity name. The error message is confusing because there is a stack.name but no item can be found under this name. Will be definitely fixed in 0.2.0 (soon).

I'm going to point you to the Automated Red Alert Harvester mod, as it tackled this issue.
