myxal Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Is Sweepy supposed to be able to walk over horizontally-placed (pneumatic) door? The lines displayed by "Show Navigation" suggest that yes, but I've never seen him do it. I just get the "reached edge" animation and then Sweepy turns back.

pether Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 that souds like a bug either way: he should be able to walk over it or the line should not be there. make a bug report for it, maybe it will be fixed until then - try using airlock doors here Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/142969-sweepy-vs-horizontal-doors/#findComment-1596697 Share on other sites More sharing options...

In very short terms: No. What you need in this kind of build are airlock doors, either manual or automated will do. Pneumatic doors do not provide a solid foundation for sweepy nor buildings. This is not a bug. It is intended behavior. If sweepy is on top of the door when it is opened, then it will drop. This will generate a "rescue" task for dupes to take him back to his docking station.

Critters used to drop through those ages ago. (Incoming Pepperridge farms joke...) If we take current behavior at face value then the navigation is bugged and should be amended, thus freeing minimal computational resources... If devs will stand by the navigation's perspective then sweepy should be able to traverse the gap, maybe? Oddly enough, critters do path and traverse the pneumatic door. At least the hatch managed the catwalk... (Not gonna QA the rest of the critters, nope...) Sweepy came into existence after the critters got "patched", I believe. And they can be spawned as critters in debug mode, but all you get is a tragic explosion and genetic ooze as debris.

When a sweepy can't find its dock, it will continue to fill it storage until reaching capacity, and then a duplicant will carry it back to its dock. I use sweepy as a "mop up an entire lake" tool this way sometimes.
