[2.0.11] Incorrect robot assignment for repairs if any logistics chest has repair packs

Post by jeff.s »

If a logistics chest somewhere in the network contains repair packs, robots will ignore closer repair packs in a roboport and fly to the chest to get repair packs instead.

Attached is a save demonstrating the issue. When the wall is damaged, I expect a robot from the nearby roboport, full of repair packs, to go fix the wall. Instead, another robot from a farther away roboport flies in the opposite direction to go grab another repair pack from the logistics chest.

I got the same thing, close roboport with robots and repair packs are beeing ignored and far away robot is heading to storage chest with repair packs

I've also noticed this problem, and it's lead to my base manufacturing over 3.5K repair packs.

Every instance of damage to my perimeter wall resulted in the logistic network requesting a fresh, full 100-stack of repair packs to be delivered from the storage chest output of their assembler (I only have 1). It seems that repair packs inside a roboport have the lowest priority of any logistic chests. Bots will ignore them and opt to fly long, absurd distances even when their closest port has hundreds of repair packs available.

Edit: I did some testing with buffer chests, and it seems that even buffer and storage chests from the opposite side of the entire network take priority over nearby roboport usage. That doesn't seem intended...
