Robots

Robots can fly to every point in a Robotic network. The following types are currently known:
Item | Description |
---|---|
Logistic robot | Move items inside a Logistic network from chest to chest. |
Construction robot | Repairs or replaces entities. |
Vulnerability
Robots are one of the priority targets of Biters, meaning they will engage them even if there are Pollution-producing buildings around. They can't defend themselves. Construction bots often operate on the frontline and thus are especially endangered.
Upgrading
More cargo or more speed for the logistic bots are also valid for the construction robots.
Charging
- A robot interrupts doing its job when its internal accu falls below a level. It flies to the next Roboport for charging.
- It takes the further Roboport B (regards to Roboport A), when its queue is smaller than 2 x (tile distance A to B).
- after charging it continues its job.
If the robot's energy falls to 0 it will begin to move extremely slowly until it has recharged at the player or a roboport.
