Dupes doing the Cha-Cha until they suffocate to death

When a Dupe can not hold its breath any longer and there is a single O2 tile that floats into and out of the dupes range to reach it the Dupe will Well like I said cha-cha run back and forth in a small area 1-3 blocks usually until they run out of air completely and die. Yes the Suffocation alarm sounds and If you are right on it you can Micro manage the Dupe with the move to command but that still does not excuse the fact that it is a Bug.

The only way I see to fix this is to implement a prioritize none moving O2 block or a Majority Wins priority saying that the dupe will go to an area that has atleast 3  adjacent  O2 tiles over the 1.


Steps to Reproduce
just keep sending dupes into areas with very little Oxygen and eventually this will happen.



User Feedback


I'm also experiencing this problem. My duplicatants are moving back and forth a single tile to reach what I assume is a small amount of oxygen somewhere, while there is a large amount of oxygen within reach. I've almost lost a few to this bug, only saving them by pausing any time I see the "suffocating" warning, finding them, and manually directing them to move to where I know there's oxygen. It's mostly occurring in chlorine environments for me.
