ISRU does not run in background, but Ore drills do.


Recommended Posts

I have a weird behavior on a heavy modded install where ISRU converters do not generate resources from Ore unless the vessel is in focus. Oddly, the ore drills run as expected and fill up the ore storage.

Any suggestions how I could troubleshoot before I start down the lengthy one-by-one mod removal method? Anyone have experience with some mods breaking ISRU behavior?

Thanks!

Only thing with the available info I can think of is, do you have a probe as the root part for your isru?  Typically background isru type stuff will only function in the background with some sort of "command" pod/probe

@OldMoldI would try removing SystemHeat. I don't know if it's responsible for the problem but it does patch ISRU so that makes it a suspect.

If the problem persists, consider using the HyperEdit mod as a workaround. You can use it to refill tanks whenever you feel that enough time has passed for working ISRU to have done so. Cheating to get past game glitches isn't really cheating IMO.

@DeadJohn that did it! I kept System Heat but deleted the optional SystemHeatConverters configs in the Extras folder. Now the ISRUs don't use SystemHeat, but at least they work as expected and "catches up" to approximately the right amount of resources when the vessel is loaded.  Thanks for the advice!
