Could not find storage despite plenty stockpiles available.

This bug is quite annoying. My bricktrons keep carrying resources over to the home crystal and dropping them on the ground, rather than going over to the nearest available stockpile.
This has resulted in me babysitting the bricktrons, manually having to click them over to the stockpile.



Notice how the bubble says "Could not find storage." despite having no less than 28 free stockpiles outside the building.

A few things to note:
  1. My stockpiles are not assigned to any specific resource
  2. This confusion happens immediately after they're built
  3. This also happens in multiplayer

    Are your stockpiles set to hold a certain item? If so, clear those settings. It doesn't look like they are currently, but you could have set them while already having items placed on the stockpiles.

    Nope, all my stockpiles are generic. I don't want to deal with micromanaging that stuff

    I got the same problem...

    I was planning to build a stone wall, and I assigned 2 workers for it. The 2 workers were planning to put a stone brick on the same place. The first worker puts the stone brick there, but the second worker doesn't put the other stone brick somewhere else or back to the stockpile, but throws it away, which is kind of annoying.

    Hey there,

    Thanks for the report! It's a known issue, for now I will recommend to use the cleaning task around your home crystal, like that the bricktrons will gather the resources that they left behind, so no need to micro.

    We are working on it!

    Thanks for your support!

    The cleaning task doesn't really help when your building/gathering/quarry zone is on the other end of the map.
    I've lost a few games by now because the resources are carried far away from the place where they are needed.
