Cleaner stops working

[Rusty]

My cleaner constantly stops working in the docks warehouse and only that place. they would start working, put rubbish in skip and then just stop. I had one go out the gate to the ally way behind and just stood there. I can talk to them ie trade or fire them. I have hired and fired so many i gave up and just leave the rubbish now.

Have you tried punching them?

They'll go back to work sooner or later.

I would murder them to try and reset.

Mine was doing the same thing. It was a pathing issue for me. I ended up re-arranging my layout with more space and so far he's acting normal again.

It may be a pathing issue. Maybe the Cleaners are similar to Roombas or those frisbee-like robot vacuum cleaners. They may be good for open floor-plans but if there are narrow or complex passages around equipment, shelves, etc, they may not be able to figure out a way through so they just stop.. OR.. There's a stray acid bottle or other piece of trash somewhere under a grow pot or mixer or behind a shelf that the Cleaner can't get to. It detects it but it can't determine a path to it.

I'm spit-balling ideas because I'm almost 220hrs in and I haven't hired a worker for anything yet. However, I have found leaves "on, in or under" grow pots that I can't pick up and acid bottles that have rolled under equipment and there's no way to get to this stuff without right-clicking the equipment out of the way. Perhaps the Cleaner has OCD and there's a piece of trash somewhere that he can't get to and it affects him way more than it should., or maybe his brains are mashed potatoes. lol

Whenever there's bugs regarding employees, my group has found that it appears to be a bug stemming from being in the world too long, maybe some kind of overflow in coding. a reset usually gets them to do their jobs again

Recently I also had the problem I put the 3 trash cans so that their green circles no longer overlap and then it worked again
