The personal roboport allows the player to act as a mobile roboport when this item is placed in their equipped armor or the spidertron. It can be toggled on or off via a button in the shortcut bar. The roboport's internal energy buffer must be 20% full to allow construction robots to deploy. They are also used to create the upgraded version of itself, the personal roboport MK2.

If the personal roboport is disabled via the shortcut bar while any of the player's robots already out of the inventory and performing a task, they will continue to finish their tasks before returning to the player.

Notes

• Personal roboports handle construction robots only, not logistic robots. If a blueprint is used, construction robots will construct only what can be built using supplies that the player has on hand.
• Just like other robots, if a personal robot runs out of energy it will reduce its speed but continue its attempt to catch up with the player.
• Equipping more than one personal roboport allows more personal construction robots to operate at once, operate further from the player, and more robots can be recharged at a time.
• Each personal roboport allows an additional 10 active robots, 30×30 range, and 2 charging ports.
