failed - no route
Anyone else getting this annoying as hell bug?

Trying to build a wall and one block in the wall keeps failing... demolish every block within 5 spaces of it, completely clear path to that block from literally every direction, still fails due to no route.. (workers can even build walls on every block around the one that fails.


Like what the **** man... I can spawn a worker on all 8 spaces around the one that I want built, and it still fails due to no route.

Nope.. ended up with 16 workers, I slowly fired them one by one and none of them were trapped, they all had a clear path to the square in question.

After firing them all hiring a new one worked, he built the wall instantly (before firing them all it didn't matter how many i hired they just stood around)

Just seems like there are a lot of little bugs like this I'm running into. For example now I'm having a problem because my staff won't use the toilets in the staffroom, so their bladder/bowel needs are full and staff morale is super low... Yet no matter how many toilets I build they just won't use them.

First I put them behind doors (like stalls in a bathroom), then I removed the doors, then I removed the walls that formed the stalls... nothing. As far as my staff is concerned the toilets in the staffroom just don't exist.


The game itself is so great and has so much depth, it makes these little game breaking bugs all the more annoying.

Yeah I have some as well, I get the no route bug like you have described and also where staff are glitching getting stuck in walls. Also getting utilites that when placed are randomly disapperaing. For example if I place a 20 small pipes, at least one will not be cancelled without me doing anything.

Probably never the worker, but the construction material is somewhere which can't be reached.
Or storage/deliveries is full so the material can't spawn.

Staff not using toilets = staffroom not marked as StaffOnly, or an old mod interfering which didn't define StaffCanUseFacilities for that room.
