I took the time to archive most of my R&D plans. When I later used my portable workstation, the archived plans were back in the main list. They also were back in the main list when I went to a workstation in the watchtower. Unfortunately it looks like the archive feature is still not working right.
Did the two of you check on different workstations? OP stated he changed them, maybe that's part of the issue. Also, if you changed workstations to check - did you log in between?
I have been on every workstation in the watchtower, yes it is working for me and yesterday I logged in and out about 9 times forgetting various things that I need or wanted to check out. Plus the overnight log out for me when I went to sleep, it was still where I put it last night, I only noticed because I was salvaging stuff to make a mask
Yea I logged completely out only because vc was so messed up. Everything where I left it..but I didn't shut down ps4, will try that meow..
Thanks, I'll try the opposite now on one of my alts - changing workstations without logging. There should be a way to reproduce this and see when it exactly happens.
Same, doesn't work for me. I added all the archives. I log out. Log back in a few hours later and see that all my archives are gone and didn't save!!
Restarted ps4 b4 logging into 3 toons.. archive still works. I'm not using the portable tho, only my base r&d or the watchtower one. Could this be pc related? Or portable workstation?
OMG! That was fast. It seems to be an alt related problem. When I logged in to try it, plans on my alt had been moved to archive already despite me not having done that. I logged in two more alts I didn't play in a while to make sure, and there was a plan moved to archive on that toon as well (the alpha mod one you get during the HQ tour missions on every toon). So it looks like moving plans from and to archive on ONE toon does effect that plan on EVERY toon.... I'd be happy if someone else could try it on their alts to see if this is persistent. I tried it with the PS4 client version, so positives/negatives from PC and PS3 would also be help.
Yes it moved them on all my toons after only archiving one, I just assumed that was how it was supposed to work. Sure made it easier for me.
If that is indeed working as intended, a green name should clarify this. No arguing that it makes things easier, but it could generate quite some confusion.
