Construction Bot Networks

Post by TheTrueHonker »

Construction bots should be able to get items from other logistic networks, as long as they are connected via the construction bot range of the robo-ports.

Imagine having a mega base in form of a city block build.
Each block should only work via the logistic bot network.

There are 2 apporaches one can take:
1. Build one large logistic network.
Pro: Construction Bots can automaticly expand the factory
Con: Logistic Bots might get items from far away blocks.
2. Build separate logistic networks. One for each block.
Pro: Logistic bots only get items from local block.
Con: Construction bots won't automaticly expand the factory anymore

To fix this problem a player should take the 2. approach, but the construction bots should then be able to travel to other robo-ports and grab items from the logistic chests, as long as the robo-ports are connected via the construction range (analog to the logistic range).

One can even go that far and make a new window like the logistic network button to give the construction networks names. But that point is debateable.
