Hi.



i'm having trouble with a faction quest that requires me to build a Glassteel extractor after i colonized the area. I have the required tech but it wont give me an option to build the extractor in the build menu. I figured i had to build near or something but then i realized that i couldn't build strategic extractors ANYWHERE in my empire. No matter if i colonized right next to the resource or i had a line of sight, it never gives me the option to build the extractor. i can build Luxury extractors just fine but the only way i can have a steady stream of strategic resources is if i annex them from other factions. I was told from the steam forums that this would be the place to upload my save to test the problem.



Any help would be appreciated. i just want to forward the quest.

Thanks for coming here!

I'll have a look at that

From what I see in your save you did not search the right technology to extract glassteel.

Have a look at the first era. There is a technology named "alchemist's furnace". This is the one that provides ability to build titanium and glassteel extractors, not "smelting station" which is for Adamantian and Palladian.

Cheers,

Yellow on Steam right? (With a MLP named capital city?) Yeah Pikou is right if that's you - You don't have the technology required.
