Lavatory not being used

You are pumping contaminated water in the lavatories. It only works with clean water.

Also, contaminated water clogs the lavatories so you have to rebuild them.

PS.: You shouldnt care about warning messages before you unpause the game, because those will be resolved when the game recalculates everything when the game starts.

I have experienced this with a closed loop filter system. The Lavatory will say "In Use" while no one is in it. (I have two at a time) In order for my dups to use either that one has to be deconstructed and reconstructed. It's fairly annoying and happens often.

@Pancakie I had this same problem. I had everyone peeing themselves before I noticed the bug. so saved and loaded the world to try and fix it. It did remove the "In Use" on the lavatories but, I think I had some contaminated water go through the pump.

I've had this happen in 3 separate games now, Fairly annoying haha.

@Pancakie use a liquid filter and your problem will be solved

How would a liquid filter solve this? Does the contaminated waste go backwards if the filter is over-pressurized?

@Pancakie

No, nothing moves backwards if over-pressurized.

What do you mean by "filter"? The liquid filter or the water purifier?

Could you upload one of your saves to check out what is the exact problem?

The Water Purifier. My closed loop has 2 bathrooms and a shower hooked up to a water purifier. Once the water is in the loop and moving i cut the water off and let it loop indefinitely. Cannot find the issue, been looking for some time. I'll upload an image when I have time.
