When trying to tell a particular colonist to prioritise hauling the pistol that is on the ground to the equipment rack the pop up menu only has the option to equip.

Colonist started rioting while in the prison cells. Once subdued drops his pistol as normal, however another colonist cannot be forced to pick it up and move it out of the prison cell and to the equipment rack in the next room. The menu only has the option to equip the pistol even though the colonist in question has a Lee Enfield already equipped.

1) have pistol laying on floor
2) select other colonist
3) right click on pistol to try and prioritise

Expected Results - Expected to be able to set colonist (who is able to haul) to prioritise moving the pistol to equipment rack

Actual Results - Only able to equip pistol to self.

Notes - Have tried in both drafted and normal instruction mode.

Attachments - Screenshot of menu when trying to prioritise.

Follow up to previous post. paused the game for dinner. come back to it now and I can prioritise the hauling of the pistol to the equipment rack.

I think I know what happened. I had something similar just now where there were dead bodies in the prison as well and no one could move them to the grave. As soon as the 2 prisoners that I had became colonists they moved the bodies immediately. I believe that the job of moving the bodies and the guns had been assigned to the prisoners but because they were in prison they couldn't do it and so had to wait until they were able to perform the action. I don't know if this makes any sense to anyone but it's just a thought.

Perhaps Vas had hauling disabled? Or his character refused to do it?

Vas definitely has/had hauling enabled. I very rarely take hauling priority out, generally only if they're my researcher. I just loaded up my save and checked again anyway.

Ok. If you could post the save (zipped) I'd be appreciative.

Only other thing I can think of is that some other colonists were already bringing guns to that rack.

Here you go. I can't find my save for the gun bug but in this one you can't right click on the dead body in the prison at all. If I find the one for the gun I will upload.
