Description
According to the storage display at the top right of the screen, I have around 300k of each resource type available, but in my turn log I am receiving 'lack of resources' messages. I had the same amount of minerals last turn so there should be no shortage. I reloaded the autosave from my previous turn and again, according to the display in the top right, I had about 300k of each resource as well. According to the empire screen, each turn I have a resource surplus of roughly as much I have in storage...more than enough. I can submit my previous turn files as well if they are needed.

Closing. Resolved with patch.
Should call a brown cow a brown cow.
Any error reported in the "news" report should state the exact problem (I ran into this resouce shortage too due to no population). How can I run an empire w/o accurate information on it's happenings? 
I assume this is added as a bug to be fixed... how do we know if this information is going to the developer(s)?
Checked & Double-Checked
Hmmm. No special events or occurences. I end a turn with 300k of each resource in the 'bank', and according to the empire overviewI am operating with a surplus, but BAM, 'lack of resources' in the news next turn. I have no idea where this information is being pulled from.
I have also had that
I have also had that it seems to be triggered by a heavy use of one resource item regardless of your stock pile. I am not sure if its a bug of just somthing set up in a strange way. Indeed as I have only seen this in one of the mods I am playing I thought it was related to that.
Re: Resource Shortage
Anyone had a chance to look at this or poke around the game files? I simply can't play effectively when I get resource shortages everytime I retrofit 8 cruisers in one turn without having 3 others abandoned at the beginning of the next turn.
Re: Resource Shortage
*edit
I loaded the game on my machine with v1.25
Turn logs showed lots of LoR problems, but none after I hit End Turn
This problem seems to be fixed in 1.25
one thing to check
other causes of lack of resorces
1 rioting on planet
2 no population (plagues natural disasters)
these also report as lack of resorces
