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. Especially the construction bots do operate often at the "front" (because for repair), they are in high danger to be destroyed.

Upgrading

More cargo or more speed for the logistic bots are also valid for the construction robots.

Charging

  • A robot interrupts doing it's job, if his internal accu is below a level. He flies to the next Roboport for charging.
  • It takes the further Roboport B (regards to Roboport A), when it's queue is smaller than 2 x (tile distance A to B).
  • after charging it continues it's job.
