[Bug] After creating a new world, mining Oxide and Silica Ore gives nothing

6 votes

I created a new open world on my server. After landing, I wanted to mine Oxide and Silica Ore. I could also break the stones with the pickaxe. But I didn't get any resources. I've had that many times now. Here are a few screen shots. World is Olympus and landing zone river area. A few trees hang in the air.

With the week #53 patch, started a new Open World Styx map save on hard. I was not able to get sulfur or oxite from nodes with a pickaxe. I did see I got a oxite from loose material on the ground where you loot just 1 oxite & stone together and scrapped up some oxygen that way. Logged out until patch lol Standard client and Dedicated Server

Hi there, have you tried verifying your Steam files? Is this still happening for you two days later?

I have no idea what causes it but it went on for two or more days and then stopped. Obviously oxite being air in Icarus I just stopped playing (early game too) but I've read others on forums mention the issue with other ores too so figured it was with all nodes. Another player verified it with the sulfur and oxite as well on that new map. I did note after it was possible to loot oxite and sulfur again, the nodes I had tried to mine previously appeared partially mined but none of it had gone into my character's inventory.

I was a previous dedilive experimental client and dedicated server. I had switched to live and made the client validate as well.

Before this map I had seen it before on another Open World Styx. People on forums mentioned the dedicated server might need a restart. I have seen it a number of times, even on missions, and logged off/on and/or restarting the server at the times helps but again I have no idea why.

Thanks for the information! One of our devs is actually working on this as we speak I believe, so hopefully we'll have a fix soon!

I think I just experienced the bug again. This time I was in a cave but realized the metal nodes I was mining were depleting as I mined them and my pickaxe durability was taking a big hit but my character didn't receive any of the resources. It was iron, copper, titanium and platinum this time that I noticed it on.

It's a newly created map from only yesterday, a Open World Styx. My coords for the cave was in southern I6 when looking at a third-party map:

I'm using a normal steam game (not experimental or dedilive) client using my own dedicated server. I intend to restart the server as I've read from forum posts suggest to see if it really helps.

I experienced this on a mission using a dedicated server. Trying to host locally worked.

I could mine oxide, durability took a hit on the pick, XP was gained, but no oxite was gained in the inventory from mining.

I also currently have the problem. I can't mine oxite or other ores on Dedicated Server.

It happening. Exit game, restart server, enter again, all ok. That was working for me.
But is a bug.

Experiencing this on a dedicated server. Tried launching multiple prospects on the dedicated server and was not able to get any resources when hitting nodes with a pickaxe. Tried a self-hosted prospect and was able to get resources when mining. Going to cycle the server to see if that fixes it as others have suggested above.
