Doctor stuck in "clean patient"
« on: May 17, 2012, 02:39:13 am »

Is clean patient bugged or something? I currently have 2 people stuck trying to "clean patient". They are just standing there next to the water with the buckets doing nothing.

I have soap and water in the hospital (the water is 4-5 levels deep).


Am I doing something wrong or is it bugged?

It is indeed a bug and will be fixed in the next version.

Forbid the bucket they're holding. As long as there are other buckets usable, they'll go fetch that one instead, fill it up and go perform the job. The buckets that turn out bugged can't be used though. I think it's the water in 'em that is messing around, I've been dumping them in magma and making/buying new ones whenever that happens.

Didn't work, they just go get a new one and then get stuck again

Works fine for me. It takes a long time though now. Well, longer than usual anyway. But it gets done eventually.

That's how I've fixed my doc's after I figured it out. Don't know what's wrong at your end though. Maybe they picked up a bucket that already had water in it? Just keep trying that forbid thing, that's all the advice I can offer without seeing for myself what's happening.

Forbidding it alone doesn't do anything, they just reclaim it back (I forbid it, then, when I check again, it is not forbidden). I have to forbid AND mark for dump for them to stop using it. And even then, all they do is get another one and get stuck again. I made sure they had no water before being picked up.

Just be glad they're not stuck in a dirty patient!

I'd love to see a release dedicated just to debugging healthcare.

@Footjob, you can microwave most grains I've tried pretty easily through the microwave, even if they aren't packaged for it.

While adding magma to anything will make it dwarfy, adding the word "magma" to your post does not necessarily make it funny.
