Logistics Drones help in moving Deconstructed Items

Post by MalContentFL »

Right now I'm ripping up parts of my starter base and I have chests full of coal and ore and junk. My construction drones are busy but also have other things to do. To help out, I think that logistics robots should also help move items to storage if the chest is being deconstructed. This would help me, and probably others, a lot.

This sounds like what logistic robots should do, moving stuff around, so yeah this is a good idea.

For now - you can replace any chest with an active provider chest (just place it on top, and it should automatically transfer all the content).
This way the logistic bots will transfer the contents to storage chests, thus helping with the task.
Once they are finished - mark them for removal.

I won't make them help, even if that sound logic. The reason is, that I eventually have a reason for that deconstruction, which was, that it tooks all my reserves of logistic bots. So I deconstruct it and I'm glad, that they do now their correct job and do NOT help deconstruction..

What's much more needed in my opinion is a way to bring in more bots or remove bots from a network.
