Sweepy's dock empty to sweep-only bins

[johninbaltimore]

I have like 60 storage bins that are full, and am trying to use Sweepy to collect the debris around a certain area.  What actually happens is Sweepy's dock fills up, then the bins marked for collection of this stuff get filled by duplicants taking the 99999999999999 tonnes of debris at the opposite end of the map and carrying it down here.

There are three ways to empty Sweepy's dock:

1. Fill 20% of the map with wall-to-wall storage and store everything;
2. Autosweeper.
3. Deconstruct it.

The duplicants will leave Sweepy's dock full and there is no way to prioritize it.  This makes the dock relatively useless.

As a fix, consider Sweepy's Dock to be a constant sweep errand.  Sweep-only bins for swept materials could then be set to higher priority, and duplicants would prioritize emptying Sweepy's dock.

20,000 Tons as storage is very little. They should make this a figure of at least 60,000. Likewise, 150kg in the Gas Tank.

I remember there was a patch where they said resoueces in the sweepy dock would be marked for sweeping so dupes would auto empty it to sweep only bins. But i also remember it never actually worked so maybe this feature wasn`t actually added.

If it could only travel over 1 tile gaps I could use it. 

So far I've only toyed with it, maybe . Though I did make a rocket of drones for digging I just launch and land over an over. Is nice.
