Can't produce missiles

[axyarthur]

I find that I cannot produce missiles in latest patch (1.3.3) even after I unlocked tech (rocket engines). Is this a bug or working as intended? I remember being able to build them before...

I looked up the .txt file in the equipment folder and was able to "fix" problem by adding a line in the text. So are we meant to not be able to make missiles for whatever reason or is this a bug? I cannot find anything in the last patch notes regarding no more missiles.

I built some earlier today. You have to construct a missile site. How it works is that the missile site acts as a special purpose missile factory that only makes rockets and also launches them. It does this without your intervention.

I see. I didn't realized they changed how rockets work. It used to be you need to actually produced rockets using factories, the new system is better. Thanks for clarification!

Would be the old way since thats how they got built from release to at least early last winter. I didn't even know they changed it.
