[0.17.4] Production goals can be achieved by hand crafting

Post by layus »

I was surprised to see that the green circuits production goal (15/m if I remember well) was achieved while I had no automation chain at all to produce it. (Only a single assembling machine, fed manually and under-provisioned for a long time).

Now, I do not know what happened exactly. Maybe
1) The assembling machine fed manually achieved the production ratio some time before, in which case the tutorial objective should be marked as green
2) Hand crafting counts towards production rate, which is unexpected and got me to an alien attack largely unprepared. At that moment, I was crafting many research labs/assembling machines. If you assemble all of them (shift-click production) then all the green circuits are assembled before all the final items.
3) Some other bug/misunderstanding kicked in ;-)

Achieving a target when you are only halfway through it is very frustrating :-D

Yup, this is why you have to make a few different things, so you can't just handcraft the whole lot.
Moving to not a bug, as this is known, and already accounted for.
