Rubble x 3 in multiple locations can't be selected for cleaning.

In home area, accessible, pawn assigned to cleaning / mining.

Two possibilities. First is that tiles have to be inside your home area for the right-click clean option to be available (and Pawns will only clean tiles inside the home area as part of their cleaning job).

Secondly, it takes a while for dirt to be noticed by the game engine. I'm not sure how many ticks (ticks are how the game measures time) need to pass before it is recognised, but there is an obvious delay. This also applies when loading a save game. Not sure if this is a (minor) bug or not but it's been this way for as long as I can remember, so it might just be a limitation of the game engine.

So can you please confirm that neither of these two factors apply to your bug. Especially the first one as that non-bug has been reported as a bug numerous times before. Edit - If you do think you have found a bug then we will probably need your save game file as your log file is clean (and thank you for posting it when you made your report).

I may have fixed this issue; if so, it would manifest as rubble not being cleanable for about a quarter of an ingame hour after loading. arcweldx, does that describe the issue you're seeing? If you're seeing rubble that's not cleanable after that period, then yes, we'll need your savegame file :)

I believe Zorba fixed it; let's watch for it in future if it comes back.
