Cauldron Glitch / Object Glitch

[Zocka]

I got this Glitch with Cauldron

I got it placed inside Docks Warehouse, and the chemist after using it once the Cauldron got bugged. Now i cant pick it up or use it. I also rejoined the game, and slept like 3 nights. But it was the same.
How do I fix this Glitch?

Fire or Kill the Chemists assigned to the station, then sleep or reload the game.

I've noticed this glitch to and tried the same things you did. When it happened again, I watching the cauldron for a while. I think it is because the assigned chemist is in route or scheduled to go to the cauldron which ends up locking you out until they finish starting it.

This is what i found to be the issue as well. Sometimes you can get them to finish their queued job but other times they either dont have time to get to it or just completely forget.

Once they started it, I immediately was able to interact with it again. and to add to this. If you are working in a small area, there may be a pathfinding issue preventing the chemist from ever getting to the cauldron, permanently locking you out. You would need to remove any objects that may be causing issues with the chemist pathfinding to the cauldron to fix that.

I had the same. Thanks for the tip. I hope the devs pick up on this.

It's seriously constantly happening now that one of my cauldrons is forever locked and my chemist is doing nothing about. I hope this bug will get fixed soon cause I already paid 6k in hiring costs.

IDK about this, as I have watched a Chemist walk to it, lock it, then move on to another cauldron like nothing happened and run that recipe.

To save on hiring costs - I just unassigned the cauldron from the chemist, then save and reload and it was accessible again.
