Refinery stops producing

Hi there.

I just picked up ST again, v102, and I have a question.

I have a refinery that's supplied by two oil wells, and it worked great for a while, producing plastic, etc.  However, at some point, following happened:
1. Production stopped and oil is now accumulating
2. There are plastics in the refinery, but none of it is making it to the station.

Is this a bug, or is there something else going on?

What about the other factory? It is probably overflowing with plastic, that's the usual cause.

My projects... Tools for messing with Simutrans graphics. Graphic archive - templates and some other stuff for painters. Development logs for most recent information on what is going on. And of course pak128!

Or the car ****embly plant isn't producing cars (missing goods?), thus nobody wants plastic right now.

Yeah, that would do it...  I was only looking at the top of the chain, forgetting the demand on the bottom.

I need more steel for that auto-factory pronto.

Thanks for the quick answer!
