Could it be that you don't have enough storage chests?

Placing storage chest definitely fixes the issue. But robot should be able to drop off repair packs to Roboport when they go for stationing. Something is wrong here.

If you can reproduce the bug in 0.13.1 please make a new bug report. There was a map corruption issue in 0.13.0 that could possibly cause all kinds of weird behavior.

Preliminary testing doesn't show it in 0.13.1.

Did you load a 0.12 save in 0.13.1 and reproduce the issue? Or, did you load a 0.12 save in 0.13.0, save it, then load it in 0.13.1?

If the first, please upload both the 0.12 save file and tell me steps to reproduce the issue when loading the save in 0.13.1.

Neither. This game was created fresh in 0.13.0. I loaded in 0.13.1, unstuck the bots, and left them to their job. Couple hours later, they were all stuck again.

Reproduction steps appear to be -
1. Have no storage chests.
2. Supply of repair packs in logistics network.
3. Frequent biter attacks requiring bots to travel long distance to repair.

So, the problem is that construction robot has the repair pack in its cargo inventory instead of its repair pack inventory, which means it can't use it for repair, land in roboport and it searches for storage chest to drop its cargo off.
I am trying to figure out how it can happen that robot picks up repair pack to its cargo inventory. I can think of 2 scenarios: order deconstruction of chest/roboport/belt containing repair pack; robot would pick up repair pack if it was in a way where the robot wants to build something.
Both of these are very unlikely on your map - you don't have deconstruction planner on your character and repair packs don't usually just lie on ground under ghosts.
Any idea how the robots could have gotten into their bad state?
EDIT: Got it ... it happens when they pick them up from passive provider.
