How to empty Polluted Water bottle.

[Rhubarb Bikini]

I have a bottle emptier set to polluted water.
It is set to priority 9.
I have many Polluted Water bottles and they all say "No storage available"
Dup set to high priority to sweep/clean/deliver etc.

I have no clue as to how to make a dup empty a polluted water bottle at the bottle emptier.

Please explain, thanks in advance.

hmmm, sounds like some mess with priorities. Try to reset dupe priorities and check if there is no another high priority (9) conflicting building wich set to use pwater bottles
edit
check access to mentioned bottles

Screenshots would help lad. Could be many things.
I don't have any problem with my set up:

Tidying priority is set at standard for all dupes.
But when I ask them to sweep a bottle of P water, I do set it at priory 9 cause I want to limit the time emitting P oxygen as much as possible.

Its a bug in the game.
I set the bottle emptier to deconstruct and it was ignored.
I built a new bottle emptier and straight away it was emptying bottles, I set it to deconstruct and it was deconstructed.
It seems my original bottle emptier is in the game, and can change its settings, and I have set it to be deconstructed, but it is totally ignored by the dups.

Sounds like it is not reachable. Try moving a dupe to it and see what happens.

Why are your wash basins set "to be used for dupes travelling BOTH directions".
They should be set to "only left".

if its not reachable, check the door to see if its set to "one way" ?

The bottle emptier is on a tile that the dups are walking over to go passed to another equipment. The corridor is 4 spaces high and there is a tile clear either side.

If it is blocked is there any indication?

no, but maybe send someone to force the door open?

Enable Auto-Bottle !!!

You Disabled Auto-Bottle, that is your problem, if I read the picture right.

If there are bottles on the floor (especially marked sweep) Auto-Bottle is irrelevant to their disposition.

yesterday i got a hatchling from printer, then a bug shows up. a dup keep calling a hatch to scrub it. but just keep calling forever without any progress. even if i move that dupe away, he comes back and keep calling. i had to restart the client to fix it.
i think this is like the first time i ever enountered a bug.

If you enable autobottler, dupes will go to any pump that supplies said liquid and transfer it to the emptier. Over time they might empty a whole pond if they don't have much to do

You're correct, but it doesn't make that much difference.
For this pic I had just switched them from the manual ones: I basically forgot to adjust the arrows

Auto-Bottle makes duper gather new bottles from handpumps - it's a setting to drain a reservoir and relocate it without constructing a whole single-use pipeline.

Without it, dupes should still gather bottles laying around if the fluid matches.
