There is an odd situation where a dupe(s) will collect bottles not marked "sweep" for delivery to a sweep only Bottle Emptier. In the first image, Max has collected the only marked bottle for delivery, but is moving to grab other bottles not marked. The BE in the second image is the only crude location and is marked for sweep only.
This bug occurs when a dupe has picked up and is delivering a marked bottle, the Move To command is used as a way of cancelling the delivery, i.e. the bottle is no longer marked for sweeping. This causes all bottles of the same liquid to be handled as if sweep only is not set for the BE, and all dupes will have the store materials task for this liquid assigned to their priority list.
- Create several bottles of any liquid, lets say crude
- Mark one bottle of crude to be delivered to a sweep only BE.
- Let the assigned dupe pick up and begin to deliver the bottle
- Before the dupe completes delivery task to the BE, use the Move To command of the dupe to cancel the delivery
- Leave the dropped bottle of crude unmarked
- Select the Errands tab of the sweep only BE to see pending task priorities
- Watch dupes pick up and deliver unmarked bottles to sweep only BE
Extra credit
- Deselect crude on the BE while dupes are delivering bottles
- Select crude on the BE
- Voila, normal task priority response to unmarked bottles, i.e. no pending deliveries
Extra Extra Credit
- The same scenario can be recreated when, instead of the Move To command, the delivery is cancelled due to a dupe's inability to pass a suit checkpoint
