[.16.24] Bots won't perform tasks on very large blueprint.
I pasted a very large blueprint and it seems to have crashed the construction bots. My personal roboport seems to have no problem performing the tasks if I approach with the items in inventory.

Post the save please.

Save attached.
I suspect it may have something to do with so many of the ghosts being out of range of a construction area. (The vast majority of the items in the print were.) Maybe the ghosts outside the construction areas were saturating the bot assignment queue. I started to place a few power poles and roboports manually and it eventually unjammed the bot queue. They are flying as expected now.

Thanks for the report however this is working correctly: you just need to wait 37 minutes for it to get around to checking every one of them 
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

Just to confirm this, I just had the same thing happen - I dropped down a massive blueprint (10,000+ items to place). The construction bots did their thing for a while, but eventually they just kind of... Stopped. I had plenty of the materials they needed in passive provider chests (delivered by a "go built it train") but they wouldn't do anything. I started manually placing items with my personal roboport that kicked them off for a while, but they stopped working again after a while.
edit: I've noticed that this doesn't happen as much with certain things. For example, there are about 400 beacons in a chest waiting to be placed and ghosts for all of them and more. No bots. I drop in a few hundred speed modules into the same chest and they are immediately picked up and placed. Same with concrete. When it comes in, it goes right away. I place a few things manually and everything starts to go again, at least for a while.
edit2: Concrete now not getting distributed either.. I did think of one thing, if it helps. As part of this blueprint, I lid out maybe 30K in concrete in addition to 10K+ items. Wonder if I just tried to do too much, or if the concrete broke it?
(This is from a massive save, almost to 6K SPM, so there's a lot going on. FPS/UPS is down to ~28)

too many active blueprints, i guess they cycle through list at 1 per tick. Can be made even worse when not steady supply of constrcution materials as well. But it will build eventually.
