Idle workers and running for fun

[glitchster9000]

Flooding makes workers idle (that it should not) and running on a treadmill to no effect.

Battery is flooded and no one is using equipment.  Bathroom door(?) I think made an invisible wall to stop water.
Now the water is too high to walk through.  Just fyi to devs.  Guess I'll start over.

They can only go so far in deep water, they're idle because they can't reach any of the planned jobs. Click on a duplicant, and click on the Show Navigation button to see what he can reach.

And that wall of water next to the bathroom is probably caused by tiny drop of polluted water on the floor. Ask your dupe to mop it out.

In the worst case, you can ask all your workers to mop themselves out of the situation. You'll just lose some water, not the whole save.

Yea, because the water is in a gravimetric distortion.

ONI water is extremely hydrophobic.

There shouldn't be any polluted water anywhere, but that is a good idea to lower the level and fix any water issues.

Just saying the water shouldn't behave like that.
