Research bench not working possible bug.


I have been having trouble getting people to do research. I have Three hi tech research benches. Two of them are connected via a multi analyzer. Those work fine. The third one is in a different room. It has power and have several people that can do work on it. Including one pawn that is idling. I put a 1 by researching but he still won't go to it. I even draft him and make him go into the room but when I un-draft him, he just walks out and wanders around.

Do all the research benches have to be connected or is this a bug?

OP did say the pawn was idling, so should have worked on research.

As to the question, no they don't all need to be linked together. Just powered. My guess is a zoning issue or a time schedule issue. Make sure the idling pawn is assigned to a zone that contains the research bench and also that the pawn isn't currently in Joy time and thus just not working right now.

Oh and double then triple check power!

Is it connected and you just don't have enough electricity to power them all?
