I can't help you with the problem, but I have seen it before (in PBW--ouch!). I've never had a problem in Sequential, just Simultaneous. I never was able to figure it out, either.

Oh yeah, that's it exactly. I'll almost guarantee it. The same thing was happening to someone here but their retrofits were failing. Turned out they had a planet stuck on repeat orders doing resource conVersion. They didn't even realize they were doing it.

When I saw 'mothballs' in the title of this thread I thought it was going to be a discussion about retro gamming, I was wrong.

You fooled me and it's not even April 1st yet.

Cheers!

Yep.
I had a planet making fighters, on repeat order. It also had a converter.
So one turn I just stopped making fighters and made a conVersion.
A couple of turns later I couldn't retrofit. Didn't put it together and didn't think I was doing any conVersions as I had massive resources.
Duh, did I feel stupid after getting an answer from MM after having them examining the turnfile to see what was wrong!

A. conert all resources from one type to another on repeat.
B. get massive new resources from facilities and trade.
and in between trying to make retrofits.....
