After creating the Ceramic's Salvage, I created a Salvage Dispatcher and then, because I thought I read in the provided note that if I did this again, it would create a Salvage Sorter, But, it created another Salvage Dispatcher. I guess it could change later on, but that was not clear.

Then when I realized I had two Dispatchers I kept trying to change the plot to another salvage item - steel, wood, etc. but it kept building the Salvage Dispatcher plot. I feel like this might have been caught up onto a cycle and while there is a high probability if I scrapped the plot and build in a new plot on that space it might solve my issue. Only I am loath to scrap it just in case it decides it doesn't want to accept the new plot (you know, stuff happens - and it did though there was a workable solution and it solved the issue).

Anyway, the question is, when does it create the Salvage Sorter?

PS. Well, I didn't want to call it Bug until I understood how it was suppose to behave.

It is a bug, basically if 2 of them start building too close together (in time, not space), then they can both hit dispatcher as their model.

Destroying the plot and remaking it will let it choose a new plot type (simply reselecting scavanger support doesn't, nor will refreshing it), wait for it to get to level 1 before selecting another Scavanger Support plot for now.

I'm debating a few ways to fix it as you are not the first person to run into this issue, some of them are pretty cludgey (basically resetting back to the scav support point if it turns out to be the 2nd dispatcher), but either way I'm hoping to have a solution to go out with my next patch (which is mostly bug squashing and configuring things to use kinggaths performance settings).
 
ok - Bug it is. But I got it working so it is, at least for me, a non issue at this point. Thanks for the reply - I'm looking forward to working your industrial digital plots.
 
This should be resolved as of 0.7.7, can you verify for me the next time you are building these plots?
