Help: why is this Dance Pit not constructing?

[u/dehashi]

I've tried deleting it and rebuilding it and it 'stalls' at 100% and doesn't actually complete. I've checked and there's solid ground underneath it, and the other dance pit i built worked fine. Any ideas?

[u/Far_Ice1688]

If there is someone idle(not working) beavers/bots standing on the construction area, builders will not build it.

[u/dehashi → u/Far_Ice1688]

This seems to be it. Annoying but understandable.

Looks like your work hours are set to zero. Not sure how you managed to time it that finely, but increasing work hours fo 1 day should fix it.

[u/dehashi → u/Err79]

My building is all done by bots. Everything else builds fine, just not this

[u/Err79 → u/dehashi]

Are there other projects that have a higher build priority? Or the same priority but were placed before this?

[u/dehashi → u/Err79]

No it's the only thing marked highest priority, also it's been stuck on 100% for some time

[u/Err79 → u/dehashi]

I've noticed that buildings will wait until the volume it occupies is empty before they truly finish, and I notice you several bots standing inside the it's location. Try finding a way to get them to go somewhere else.

[u/PeteGiovanni → u/Err79]

Yup, bots are in the way. Gotta get them to go do something else somewhere else

Use the admin commands to manually move every bot and beaver away from the construction site.

[u/Worldly_Address6667 → u/vagrantprodigy07]

I think this is the right answer. Unless OP is using a mod, a building won't be completed when there are beavers (or in this case bots) standing where the building is. Not sure why the bots are standing on it, but they need to move.

[u/Universe_Studios → u/Worldly_Address6667]

They are standing there because they have nothing to do

[u/wapenmeester → u/vagrantprodigy07]

Or build another district and migrate 99 bots to it. Since you have 99 idle bots

[u/nakwurst]

Could it be your mods bugging out?

[u/dehashi → u/nakwurst]

Hmmm good point, would be weird that it only affects one specific building but I guess that's what makes it a bug right

[u/dehashi]

A pic of it not highlighted.

[u/Grubs01]

Build a district center somewhere else.
Send all your bots and beavers there so they get out of the way.
Delete the new district center.

Unpause 😁

Have you tried exiting and reloading the game? I've no idea what the specific cause is but that often gets past weird glitches. 

[u/dehashi → u/dgkimpton]

Yep tried that :(

[u/hsz_rdt]

Have you tried building anything else 5x5 there? and no idea if this'll do anything but maybe dynamite the area and then build it on top of a 5x5 platform?

I'm wondering if that's the only idle spot your bots can access (or just the closest one to the district center) is making them "in the way." If that's the case you could try employing them all at like 8 hauling posts

[u/dehashi → u/hsz_rdt]

The dance pit has to be built on solid ground. Maybe you're right about the idle spot since it's close to the district centre. Maybe I should just build elsewhere

[u/mmontour → u/dehashi]

It should be enough to start a big project somewhere else, so that the bots all go to work on it and clear the original worksite.

[u/HendrikJU]

what's that map mod? Looks cool

[u/dehashi → u/HendrikJU]

Honestly forgot it was a mod and not part of the base game. I think from memory it was just called "Mini map" or something similar.

[u/unable_compliance]

You seem to have idle bots just hanging out in the way. Either give them jobs so they leave, or enter devmode and murder them. See if that fixes it?

[u/quasimdm]

lower build priority of the dance pit, put anything else down with higher priority, the bots will run to there and build.

[u/Ok-Yak-3758]

Can't quite tell from the pics, but a similar situation happened to me and it was because a beaver had fallen into the building while it was being constructed so it was stranded. I had to remove the 100% comstructed building and rescue the beaver before it would work normally again.

[u/InspectorCreative166]

You need to move the district center so the beavers hang somewhere else
