Hopefully this is a quick question and simple.

I have two harvestors on a moon
In the processes - production tab of the pos management screen, both harvestors are green and I have the particular icons to the right.

Both silos are red though, I also have icons on the left and right. Both icons match their respective extractors

Are the silo rows supposed to be red? or is this some type of flag that im not setup properly?



example
extractor 1 - extracting mineral A both green and online
extractor 2 - extracting mineral B
silo 1 - storing mineral A
silo 2 - storing mineral B both online but the row is red.

Colour on that screen is meaningless.

Its only purpose is to help show the difference between routed inputs and outputs.

It can be really confusing until you realize this.

The color coding does not indicate status, but simply the structure type. Miners are green, simple reactors are grey, complex reactors purple, silos red, etc.

if you linke the miners to the appropriate silo make sure to press apply if you dont the links will just break again and it will keep showing the miner status as starting up.
