donutman07 Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 I've seen this type of setup used by others a lot: Where a weight plate and checkpoint ensure dupes all wash their hands at one hand washing station. It mostly works until somebody drops something on the weight plate 30kg+ and then it silently traps your duplicants until their death (or you eventually wonder where your dupes are) I can think of a few ways to occasionally release people from this trap, e.g. buffer or time of day sensor. But I'm curious what you guys use. Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/85374-dupes-get-stuck-at-washing-hands/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saturnus Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 My suggestion would be to measure the time it takes dupes to wash their hands, add a second or 2, and have the pressure plate reset if activated longer than that. Possibly with some kind of warning light going off to indicate there is a problem you need to look into.

GreatGameDota Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 By the screenshot I don't know how the first dupe may have gotten stuck but after that dupe died his dead body on the pressure plate probably didn't help Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/85374-dupes-get-stuck-at-washing-hands/#findComment-983643 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though it's not terribly important, they often drop some igneous rock or whatever on the weight plate if they happen to be carrying right before bed and then somebody gets stuck.

UristMcKerman Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Now imagine them dropping nuclear waste in future updates or DLCs. Things are going to be fun.
