found refinery

Not sure if this is a bug or not. I found a refinery on a messed up grid. I wanted to take it home and add it to my grid. Of course, I know I can't directly add it to the grid but the problem is that when I tried to move it it wouldn't move at all. I had cleared out all blocks around it. After grinding it down I did not see anything that could be used to block it from being moved.

i don't think they added in the option to turn static grids into ship grids yet or vice versa. could be that refinery is a static grid

Static or not you should be able to move objects.

no if it's static you can't move it. hence the term "static grid"

I ground down all around a block (a drill) and it became mobile by itself. It didn't touch any voxels. I don't know yet what the conditions are.

one of the "unknown signals" ? yes? a probing station probably. i would guess because 1, you did not place it, 2 its a static grid and will stay that way until the static/mobile system is implemented, 3 we can not yet grind stuff down "most of the way" then hack it to make it "ours".

that last one is probably one of the top 5 things im looking forward to as the game continues to develop.

Yes it was one of those pop up stations. However the problem isn't that I can't move it. It's the fact that it vanishes. I was able to BP it though. So I can make a working refinery.

Yes this was 4 months ago. But this isn't a bug I was told.
