Add a building where bots can recharge

Post by carloscu »

I don't know if it's the right theme for this idea. But I wonder if it would not or would be a bad idea for the logistics robots to add an extra building where they can recharge their energies ... and not only in the Roboports which is where they usually do it. It is that sometimes when it takes a long time to play the Robot jam increases in Roboports, and delays the progress of many creations ... I hope one day they will add something similar to a mini Roboport where they can be recharged ...

regards

[Koub] Split from another suggestion thread, and made a suggestion of its own.
This suggestion has already been made, but usually embedded in groups of other suggestions, and I couldn't find the exact same, so I'm letting it as a new one.
@OP : just that you know, there are mods that do exactly that :
https://mods.factorio.com/mod/robosubstation
https://mods.factorio.com/mod/Robo-Charge-1x1
https://mods.factorio.com/mod/dedicated-bot-charger
https://mods.factorio.com/mod/Robocharger

The whole needs to be taken to the logical conclusion. And that's also have extra buildings for the other roboport functions. Storage isn't necessary maybe, but there really shouldn't be a one-tile network extender

Thanks for the help ... Anyway I hope some day the developers add something like that similar to the Mods, but that it is natural to the game itself ...

Gracias por la ayuda... Igual de todos modos espero algun día los desarrolladores añadan algo así parecido a los Mods, pero que sea natural del propio juego...

Just FYI mods like bobs logistics include these entities. It has robo chest, which has no logisitc and building range and just bot inventory, a zone expander, that has no charging and no inventory and just the ranges. And a charging pad, that charges bots. So it is possible to implement as a mod. (and has been, so i dont know if bobs logistics works good stand alone.)

I know, but that also comes with lots of other stuff and depends on his basic library mod.
