Autosweeper bug


Recommended Posts

This is getting really frustrating. My autosweepers stop working randomly. No, this isn't a loader/receptacle priority issue. Sweepers are working fine and then... they aren't. The only thing that helps is deconstructing the sweeper and constructing it again, after which it instantly starts working.

Which tends to be a problem when the said sweeper is inside a sealed chamber with a volcano.

Any idea what's causing this or how to get it fixed without rebuilding?

Sometimes saving and reloading helps. Other than that? Yeah, not much you can do. 

Try clearing the inputs of everything the sweeper can reach and then re-selecting what you want. 

I've had a couple critter feeders stop accepting input from otherwise functional autosweepers. Clearing them then re-selecting igneous worked in this case.

Ok after the autosweepers feeding my water sieves stopped my whole colony died not only once ...

(I rely on electrolyzers and bristle berries ^^)

Disabling and enabling reactivated my auto sweeper

=> Use a clock sensor to turn the sweeper off and on again once a cycle

Bristle berries? Pfffft. Omelettes are where it's at! :D

Anyway, this is an awesome suggestion. Thank you.

I have a fully automated system, that just needs constant 8kg/s of water to keep all 240 plants happy ;)

(Water in, berries out. No harvesting or other duplicant interaction needed.^^)

It´s all about saving duplicant work time^^
