Ammo Caster Research
« on: May 18, 2014, 01:13:09 pm »

What do I need for ammo caster research? I have ammo, I have metal bars, and I have crossbows. Yet the reaction is still red. What am I doing wrong?

Edit: never mind it suddenly worked

the crossbows/ammo might be in a soldier/hunters inventory,or if you are using burrows the reagents may be outside of the burrow your research lab is in.

I made sure to have an excess of crossbows and ammo. Does it matter if the ammo is only assigned to the squad, but not being used?

Edit: Unassigned ammo, doesn't change anything

And check if you have burrows (even if not active) covering the researcher lab but not the reagents. Adjust them to cover all necessary or delete them (it's a bug).
