I just figured it out. You need to have the bucket Equipped in Either Primary or Secondary. Having it in your inventory isn't enough. There's been a few recipes like that, for some reason. Perhaps the Logic for auto-equipping is broken currently. Like how when you do barricade windows it auto equips the Hammer.

I just tried a minute ago it still not working, did you used clean water or dirty ?

Edit: Even with clean water it s still not working i don t get it

i had this same Issue I think, if you hover over the bucket you should see "(DEBUG) script name: Base.BucketEmpty" i got a different bucket that is always just "Base.Bucket" and that one works as intended, so i think there's a bugged bucket variant left in or I somehow broke the bucket, not sure if this is the same issue you're having but maybe this helps.

I believe the recipe for making cement is not in the game yet, or am I mistaken?

True, i got two buckets from my first cement mix, one empty and one with cement, so the second one is always "Base.BucketEmpty", even if it has water.

Full bucket of clean water, tainted does not seem to work. and it does spawn a new type of bucket that even once used is just an empty unusable object.

i never did any cement mixing and i found both my buckets in a house on different shelves, so im thinking Base.BucketEmpty is most likely in the loot pool as well.

Try using one of the paint buckets. Empty that and see if it has a different entry name.

Found this from Google. Base.bucket fixed the issue for us.
I found a way by finding a full "base.bucket", somewhy i had to refill it many time because it was loosing some water every time i moved but it worked
Searched for hours to find a bucket, finally come across one and spent another hour trying everything I could to make the cement bucket, but looking into it further, I have an empty paint bucket, and not a bucket. Doh.

Could this be the reason why I can't mix cement?

IRL I've mixed cement on a wooden board on the floor, in a wheelbarrow, and a cement mixer, so It'd be nice to be able to mix cement in various ways. I hope someone makes a use of the cement mixers in a mod or the next update.
i had a different issue related to cement.

you need to fill it from a sink or something. NOT from a rain collector or let rain in it. not because of tainted water, but because it won't fill to ten liters. if you check your bucket it HAS TO HAVE TEN LITERS of water in it. it can't have 9999 milliliters.

what i did was, assuming your water is off, fill up your bucket with tainted water to 9999 water, then boil the water in an oven/campfire, then transfer a liter of water to a water bottle/pot out of the bucket, then fill up the missing liter from a clean water source like a sink/bath tub etc. this will fill the bucket up to a full 10 liters and allow you to craft the cement. https://imgur.com/a/0ZzHzew

I have a legit bucket, its filled with exactly 10000mL (10L) of water
Its in my hands, I have the clay and sand in my main inventory, still showing as not able to craft... (due to missing 10L water)

im so lost as to how to get this to work

Ok found an odd workaround that seems to be working, I need to have 2 buckets on me.... leave one empty, fill the other with (clean) water as before, then go search the recipe and its usable now... with ONE bucket filled with water for some reason the recipe shows as not being viable.
