[1.21g] Metal not mining or available to buy

About 50 rounds in, i noticed metal stopped producing completely. I have two mines that have plenty of metal left but my resource output is zero. I also noticed it is not available to buy from the market. I looked at some of the logs and price for metal is like 10k.

Probably unrelated but for the life of me i couldn't get logistics to show up in another town. It looked like it was transported to the town (Toulose in the save game) and it could even build structures but i couldn't raise any forces on it because it always said zero logistics.

You probably have logistics issues. If you can't raise forces, it means you don't have logistic points left that could be used for strategic movement, ie. you should have a bottleneck. Check bottleneck view, if you have some black along the way between your SHQ and the city you need to improve your logistic network and it will likely fix everything, including the metal issue.

Yeah, that's the second bug and not the main one but there were no black bottlenecks, only yellow. I also redid the line a couple ways to try to fix and it didn't. This was with a rail line as well which is less prone to logistic shenanigans. The second city also had a functioning rail head too so that's not the problem.

Working as intended.

Both Zones with Metal Mine have metal mine that is actually producing, but it is not being sent to SHQ because the Zones need the Metal themselves to finish constructions.

As for the Metal shortages with the Traders, that is indeed not functioning as it should.
I am making changes for the next version.
Big Thanks for reporting!!

Thanks, I confirmed metal production was working. I just got momentarily confused because the SHQ inventory didn't seem to imply I was producing. There is also no production report that I could find. Then combined with the market issue, thought it was something bigger! I finally remembered I could look at the zone resources which is the only place I could see where resources were actually being produced.

Am not sure what happened with the Toulouse connection but after deconstructing and reconstructing my railroad, it did finally connect to my SHQ. Am not sure why it ever wasn't as there were no black bottlenecks but it's working now. But my game is back underway, thanks for looking at the issue.
