In the popular game Satisfactory, players have noticed a problem with coal generators. These machines are important for power in the game. Many say their generators suddenly stop taking coal, even when everything is set up correctly.
One player, named GeminiEclipse, shared that no matter the speed of the conveyor belt (60 or 120 units per minute), the coal stops flowing at random times. Others said they also have this issue.
Some tried different things to fix it, like Whole Wheat Butter and tbwiiaddict3. They rebuilt generators and belts, fed coal by hand, or reloaded the game. These fixes sometimes help a little while, but the problem quickly returns.
Another player, kLuns, thought adding splitters on the belts might break connections. Even fixing this didn’t help most people for long.
The trouble seems to have started after a recent game update. Before then, generators worked just fine. Some players said opening the generator’s menu can fix it only for a few minutes. They tried building generators on flat ground or changing how they set them up. Hint: the bug still happens anyway.
The game developers know about the bug. A moderator, called Munin, told players the problem will be fixed soon. Many players feel really annoyed while they wait for the update. Some have stopped playing the game. Others are dealing with the bug however they can.
In short, a bug in Satisfactory is messing up coal generators. They don’t take coal consistently. Some temporary fixes may help, but the bug continues. Players are waiting for the developers to fix it properly.
