No sir. And it doesn't happen automatically either -- maybe after 2 or 3 in game days, then all of a sudden the garage is open and the station says "Out responding to fires" but no truck is there. It's similar to the bug that was "fixed" in an earlier patch.

After 5.0, my first firetruck in my fire station ALWAYS goes missing. Only when I add another garage do fires actually get put out - where did my first firetruck go? Is there any way to resolve this? I only have ~20k citizens and they are all educated so there isn't much fire risk, but when there is a fire, it spreads everywhere and without a truck, you can obviously see where that leaves me. I don't want to keep adding garages (adding to my cost/hr.) Is this happening to anyone else after 5.0?

You could either recycle and process your recyclables to produce the alloy and plastic (although I doubt that would be enough to sustain an Electronics empire) or you could build trade depots/ports and import the alloy and plastic by plopping the appropriate storage. if you have coal and ore, you could smelt those products and get the resources you need as well. good luck!

I think the premise is that you can only get use out of the Great Work if you have the appropriate connections. I would assume that if you wanted a city to use the Solar Farm, it needs to be connected to the Solar Farm via highway (considering the way the "agent" system works) Is your city connected?
