Duplicants cannot release pressure from oil well when it is not working


Recommended Posts

I peridioically have this issue through several updates of the game and it still exists.

I usually automate oil well to get some amount of crude oit and stop.

The problem is when it raised pressure to be released and it is disabled with automation|has not power|has no water dupes come to reslease pressure, but they cannot do it
When they relaase pressure animation shows like oit well is working, but the pressure is not released from it and dupes continue to try release it infinitely. (like try releaseing, then go to sleep or breathe, then try again and so on with no result).
Dupes can release pressure from oil well ONLY if it is working normally (has power, has water, not disabled with automation)

I wan thinking this issue is obvious, but since I'm still having it after several game updates - seems that it is still somehow is not noticed.

Can this be fixed ?

Well, I was just going to post about that issue and found this post while making a research to avoid double posting.
Please fix this :)

The issue happens when the well is disabled via automation OR when there's not enough water in it (seems like it requires 10KG of water in storage in order to accept to release the pressure).

I'm sad because I thought I could outsmart the bug by making the automation cut the water supply instead of the building itself, but it's actually no help :'(
