To get back on topic - was there a log message about the research center not being built? I know you get one when building more units than can be stored at a location. I've also noticed that, in that case, the build order is also NOT deleted. I sometimes appreciate that, because sometimes I want all the units built anyway, and either launch enough cargo to store the units I want or move a transport to that location. Of course, sometimes I just forget to check how many weapon platforms I can fit on a small planet; but even then, I may not want the build order deleted because I might be building a newer Version of an old WP, and just forgot to jettison the old one.

I was always wondering if the necessary resources are wasted in case of "no storage available" (which happens very often in my chaotic management style). It appears to be the case.

he is saying that the planet attempts to build the facility, but then gives him an error message saying something similar to the "Insufficient Storage" log message when you build too many units. This results in wasted resources (they were spent on the facility...)

No, there is no error message. That is the problem. That, and it wastes resources building a non-existant facility.
