I have now built 3 fully upgraded Processor Factories to finally get the Electronics HQ-upgrade, but instead of Exporting the stuff the stocks just fill up. Occasionally I see a set being sold for 64.000, but my stocks are overflowing again immediately.
This sucks.

I have a weird other bug, which I already reported to Origin.... one of my factories dropped ~2 times it's height into the ground LOL (see Screenshot).

Maybe it is an Iranian nuclear weapons facility...

Have that with my coal and ore. They keep stacking in the trade port. Dunno why.

Did you select "export" rather than local use?

I guess if you already figured out to how to build a trade port, you are bound to discover this feature.

In my first attempt, I had a recycling facility full of recycled stuff for quite some time before I discovereded the trade port.

@Jona I got a similar glitch in my city, just the other way around. The building is on some kind of ultra steep hill

Well funny thing is the exact same building has been on flat ground before... not even due to construction of a new building. Weird!

You are tempting me to load this thing on the work 30", 2560x1600 monitor PC.

I figured out what it was, I had severe traffic issues where the motorway met my city roads, I built a Y-crossing there and now its not a problem anymore. The processors in stock went 1-2-3 and now I have the Electronics HQ at stage 2.

Does anybody know if you can clean ground pollution? I demolished that sewage dump pipe but the area keeps being polluted and seems to still be expanding...

swiftus27 · « **Reply #194 on:** March 13, 2013, 11:03:45 PM »

plop a filtration plant on it and use filters and not pumps as the upgrade.

So that eventually removes the ground pollution? Interesting....

Dasha · « **Reply #196 on:** March 14, 2013, 09:01:19 AM »

Okay that requires some interesting planning as I plopped my nuclear plant on it

Sami · « **Reply #197 on:** March 14, 2013, 02:33:32 PM »

Okay well WTF. Right in the middle of playing (everything working normally and connected to servers etc):

"Your city is not processing properly" ... etc. Only option to QUIT back to main menu. Then I have an option to rollback to a previous "save" or "abandon" city. And dumdidum, everything I have done in last 40 minutes has disappeared.

p*** off EA.

Infinity · « **Reply #198 on:** March 14, 2013, 03:05:05 PM »

Yup, the fact that the game has no free saving is REALLY bad.

I imagine ground pollution as dirty water on the water overlay.
