I've searched the forums but haven't seen another case reported.
This happens with or without mods, but I only use the two below and I don't think they are the cause as I get the same results with them disabled.
Mods: Score Extended and unDecorator.
Problem:
When placing concrete by blueprint, some construction robots get stuck charging at a roboport on their way to construction.
The robots are on one of the 4 charging points like normal, not hovering nearby waiting to charge.
The construction robots go and collect the concrete, start heading towards the construction site, stopping to charge on the way. At any one of the roboports, they stop to charge, but never leave. And by never, I do mean they will stay there until I pickup the roboport to allow me to pick them out of the air manually.
I've checked back on concrete areas 10's of hours later but the same last few tiles of concrete are still ghosts.
Roboports are placed before the concrete blueprint.
All other items; assemblers, inserters, power poles etc. are placed just fine. It's only ever concrete that has this issue.
I can see the robots hovering at roboports all over my base.
I tend to be building constantly, so hadn't really noticed, but I think 3,730 robots are stuck.
I've read the forums alot, and problems like this with blueprinting are usually caused by O or C shaped logistics networks.
My base is basically a big square of roboports in a grid with only one logistics network.
~4,250 roboports
~18,500 logistic robots
~14,000 construction robots
I'm on peaceful mode.
I left the game running with no new construction jobs, and a constant 3,730 robots are unavailable.
If I cancel the ghost for, say 5 tiles, then after around 2 minutes game time, the 5 robots get released. (if it was running at 60UPS)
10280/14000 changes to 10285/14000
Sorry if this has been reported before.
Anyone have any advice?
