I am looking at the attributes of a siphon:

I see three errors here:
First, the attribute named "Minimum Anchoring Distance From Starbase Shield" (50 km) should probably be "Maximum Anchoring Distance From Starbase".
Second, "Restricted To Security Level Less Than" should probably be 0.5 instead of 0.4 (unless you intend them to be unusable in 0.4, I haven't tested that).
Third, "Shield recharge time" is using an inconsistent capitalization. It should be "Shield Recharge Time" to go with the other attributes.
Also as an interesting observation, siphons by default don't appear on your overview. This has the potential to severely confuse inattentive POS managers. |

I think I have stumbled upon a bug with the siphons. I have dropped 9 at once on a mining tower. The tower has nothing but a single miner linked to a single silo. But the moongoo just seems to vanish - it doesn't go in the silo, and it doesn't go in any of the siphons. This has been happening for 3 POS ticks (3 hours) so far.
Yes, I fly to each siphon manually, right-click them in space and select open cargo. I got one siphon working as intended before, so this is not an UI error.
If GMs/devs want to check, the tower is in HLW-HP at P6 M8. I'll leave it set up as it is for a while.
I was playing around with various reactors, silos and miners setups before encountering this problem, so it's possible something got messed up along the way. Tomorrow I will set up a new POS from scratch and try to duplicate the issue. |

Siphons also don't appear to have any collision detection whatsoever. I tried bouncing off a siphon really hard and I always just passed right through it. I don't know if this is intended (for easier deployment) or a glitch/not yet implemented. |

Good luck finding those reaction farms in highsec.
(you can't anchor moon miners or reactors in highsec) |
