Generator Not Producing Power

I built a new generator, filled it with wood, it's adjacent to 2 other generators (I now have 4 in total) but the new one is showing a lightning symbol; it's not producing electricity despite being fully stocked with wood and connected to the grid. The other generators are producing.

Any ideas what could stop a generator from producing (other than being out of fuel - which this one isn't).

have you connected it to a power conduit?

Even if it's not connected to the power grid, it should not be showing the lightning symbol unless something else is wrong.

OP: It's most likely a bug. Deconstruct the generator, build a new one in the same spot. If the problem persist, make a bug report. And please add a screenshot if possible and a list of mods you're using.

Post a screenshot from power mode (when you're placing conduits, they all light up in light blue and it's easy to spot connectivity errors).

Apparently the re-start fixed it but here's a screenshot I took last night:



And here's the power shot:



It was fueled up and connected so I guess (given that the re-start has fixed it) that this was a #bug.

Had a similar bug earlier... Fixed a thermal generator after it broke down, but it won't produce any power no matter what. Didn't restart though, simply "fixed" the problem with debug delete and debug buy... Not sure whether it's the same bug but surely sounds similar in a way.

Sounds like a similar bug.

I posted these pics and description in the Bugs section btw: https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=20042.0
