bug Atmo Suit Delivery

[Chained Phoenix]

So something is super bugged with Atmo suit delivery... I've got two suits stored in a storage bin with a priority of 7, I've got four locations with suit bays, all at priority 9.  I expanded one of the bays to include more suits, press to deliver them and instead of grabbing the suits right next to it, on the ground, or in the storage bay, they run off to another bay, and steal that suit!  It can take a couple cycles to finally get all my bays filled with-out them grabbing from others and I end up having to restrict access through doorways so they can't decide that's the best suit to take

ye same my suits keep disapearing from my base aswell

its kinda a problem since the base is closed off

no suits trapped inside...dead

Yes. But as this is usually a "do once" task, I just use the yellow alert to get it done.

I've had atmo suits disappear from docks even though there is only one entrance through the checkpoint. Turns out when I was building new docks somewhere else, dupes would steal the atmo suits already in use instead of the ones I just made laying on the floor... It's kind of annoying.

It's do once until you expand, build a new location, etc.  Happens a lot for me at least.  I'll often send someone to the other asteroid via the teleporter with a suit on and then replace it as it's easier than sending a suit via the physical items transporter.  As soon as one of the bays is down a suit, it's a total lottery where they take one from.  Sometimes you don't even notice until you look at an area and notice the suit is missing.

Ah, yes. With the DLC it has become a more frequent occurrence, you are correct.

With all this new suit durability, this issue has become even bigger problem. 

 

• Docks should have an auto delivery.
• The dock that had suit taken off from a checkpoint should have that auto delivery temporary disabled. 
• Dupes should not view suits in docks as available to sweep and deliver somewhere else. 

Even with this I would see issues with multiple checkpoints out of the base. So should be avoided. Unless there would be a priority for a dupe to enter the base in the same checkpoint.

Hey guys, I think this might be interesting to you:

At first I wanted to post this here, but decided to make a separate topic in more appropriate subforum.

As for your suit problem, there is a workaround: set the full docks at priority 9, and the empty ones priority 8 (or below). Now they won't steal from the other docks.

Also, make sure you don't have any enabled suit storages with priority equal or higher than the full docks.
