temporary container unable to remove ingots under <0.01

Jason McAlpin shared this bug 10 months ago
In Progress

This is something that pops up from time to time. I get some tiny amount of an ingot in a container and cant remove it as it is <0.01


This is a problem with temporary containers. I cant get the last bit out so I am stuck with a floating temp container in the way. i have to randomly drop ores into the container hoping to get some other fractional amount so it can be moved. but I cant drag amounts into the temp container so its stuck

Hello, Jason!

Thank you for writing to us.

We tried to reproduce this issue on our side, and we were able to transfer/remove <0.01 amount of ingot from the temporary container.

Could you kindly share some more information concerning this issue?

Did you experience this issue in a modded world/server (has active MODs/Scripts)? If so, kindly create a new vanilla world (has no active MODs/Scripts) and check if the issue persists over there as well.

If it does, please send us a screen recording/video showing the issue, the Vanilla World save file, and the log from the time this issue occurred.

  • You can access your save files by typing %appdata% into your Windows search bar and you will be redirected to the hidden Roaming folder. After that just follow: \Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Saves. There should be a folder with your SteamID and your saves.
  • Please zip the file and attach it here. If you are having difficulty attaching files you can optionally use Google Drive. When sharing a Google Drive link please make sure it is set to be downloadable by anyone with the link.

it was on Keen NA 1. no special mods. just grinded down a reactor and had that issue with the temp container.


Sadly it is common enough that I recognize those <0.01 ingots that get stuck in various block inventories but never sure about why it happens or even how to reproduce it.

I've done a ton of testing on personal computer and haven't found a way to replicate the amount that didn't get moved. since it was on a server there isn't a save I can point to that gets the same result.

Had this issue few times - but on DS'es with mods. I will look for it - and maybe do some tests. Only solution is to grind container (and without grinding animation - it's not satisfying :( )

It looks like some rounding error.


You take few grams of some of our precious resources for yourself - totaly understable ;P

This happens a lot to me. It is a particular problem with uranium if I forget to empty a reactor before grinding it. Since they stop block placement, they can be an enormous hassle if they fall into a nook during a build / engineering process.

i did figure out that i can use the grinder on the bag and it will remove it

I am also having this issue very frequently, but I don't have the foggiest idea how to replicate it. It just happens. But like Eddit, it's also the most frequent with Uranium.
