Resolved; did not have enough mechanisms but was not informed of it.

Did previous versions inform you if there weren't enough mechanisms?

When I try to link something to a lever but don't have enough mechanisms, it most definitely tells me I don't have enough mechanisms.

Okay, I updated the summary to reflect the real problem.

Reminder sent to: Morifen

Is it possible you lowered your announcement/job cancellation message setting and just weren't seeing it? They would still show in your game log.

A report from version 31.03 stated they had received messages when not having enough mechanisms.

No, the problem was when trying to link a lever to a bridge, I was unable to select the bridge as though it were unselectable. The problem was resolved when I manufactured more mechanisms, i.e. the problem was a lack of mechanisms, not a problem with the lever or bridge themselves.
