Ghost errand

It happens A LOT, 50% of all chores, I've ever witnessed with Rock Crusher and Microbe Musher, but it might happen with other stuff, like the Manual Generator, but that one is rare.

Basically, after a task, the dupes sometimes will get stuck on a ghost task: the item does not get dropped, energy is still consumed (if manual generator, energy is still produced), no additional items are consumed, and animations play from the beginning.

I've no idea what it might be, it's also really close to the ghost progress bar bug, a minor visual bug where the progress bar disappears, usually after changing layers.

Those bugs didn't happend back when I started playing the same last year, but after some days, my game has been on this state and it's almost one year.

It affects ALL games, modded, unmodded, 1x or 3x speed, DLC or not.

 

EDIT: Added bit more context.


Steps to Reproduce

> Use Rock Crusher, Microbe Musher, might affect other stuff (I don't see it affecting deliverying and tyding!)

> Wait until task finishes

> Wait until it happens (not rare, usually 50/50)

Seems identical to 

The progress bar and animation are desynced

 

Almost, the bug itself is somewhat deeper since the dupe takes extra time to do it's task and energy is still consumed, and as said, Manual Generator still consume energy, so the dupe get stuck and can't move while it doesn't finish.

Also, this bug has been for almost a year :cry:
