Year 10 Day 13 5:39	First time factory worker
Sheng-ji Yang	Hi, I'm attempting to begin my first ever production run in my factory. I've read the rules, have the required mats, got the datacard, assigned the faction, am standing in the control room, and have assigned the NPC workers to the faction. Yet I get the following error message when initiating the production: Gooday sir, We've experienced some problems in carrying out your latest order. We've compiled this list of problems for you, please let us know how you wish to proceed. D`Este Realty no longer has the correct documents certifying them as vehicle producers. Regards, Senior Project Manager Factory Now my faction possess the datacard for building groundhogs so I don't understand why I got this message. Can anyone help me determine what is wrong?

Teyacapan Quetzalxochitl	Your faction is not a vehicle production faction. ____________ Staff consensus that avatar was inappropriately suggestive. (retards)

Sheng-ji Yang	I see, so even if a faction owns the datacard they may not be able to produce the product unless they are also of the correct faction type?

Ellias Aubec	Yes. See the GE for a better example - they can't build any of that, yet they own all those datacards. ____________

Ryaol Zanon	You will need to get a vehicle production faction to manage the factories that you are producing them in. ____________

Mikel von Bianchi	No, he will need to join a vehicle production faction. ____________ [19:48] .Zhao> Items know they're inside me

Mikel von Bianchi	“I've read the rules, have the required mats, got the datacard, assigned the faction, am standing in the control room, and have assigned the NPC workers to the faction. ” He's already done so. I was actually trying to help him move along rather than repeat what he had already performed. ____________ [19:48] .Zhao> Items know they're inside me

Xavze Zavan	Well.I'd say he assigned his faction since this message was spit out: "D`Este Realty no longer has the correct documents certifying them as vehicle producers." so poo ^_^ ____________ How would you like to pay income tax EVERY month?

Sheng-ji Yang	Indeed you must assign a valid faction as manager then either have an operator who is a member of that faction assigned or the owner of the factory (in this case me) must join the proper faction and be operator. I don't see why anyone who is a private individual want to buy a factory if you can't use it to produce anything. I think that's totally unrealistic that I need an authorised operator assigned to the factory. I should be able to run my own damn factory if I have the DC and the proper faction is assigned as manager. poo poo and flame away but really how is someone supposed to get ahead in the galaxy who is not the member of proper factions?

Hal Breden	“really how is someone supposed to get ahead in the galaxy who is not the member of proper factions? ” You aren't. You're supposed to actually interact with others, and use the appropriate factions for the appropriate activities. You aren't SUPPOSED to do everything on your own. ____________ "May the Grace of Ara go with you, and His Vengeance be wrought upon your enemies." Only fools and children dream of heroes.

Sheng-ji Yang	I guess I knew that all along but it's frustrating when it comes to wait times for everything to fall into place. That's why I was a bit testy there earlier and I apologise for that. Still, my conclusion is that investing in factories for your personal inventory is not worth it IMO from a ROI point of view. You're better off buying and selling ships and real estate.

Xavze Zavan	If you cultivate relations with the different production type factions,you should be able to keep your factories pretty busy. ____________ How would you like to pay income tax EVERY month?

Hal Breden	Keeping factories in your personal (/non-production faction) inventory, like mines, allows you absolute control over them and their end products, and allows you to quickly and easily change managing groups if you have a problem with the one you're using. But yes, probably not worth it in terms of ROI. ____________ "May the Grace of Ara go with you, and His Vengeance be wrought upon your enemies." Only fools and children dream of heroes.
