great mod!
bug: sometimes the personal roboport disappears before all the bots have made it back in. this seems to happen most often when I do X, then do Y w/o waiting for all the bots dispensed to do X to get back in.
bug: construction bots won't fly out of your inventory if there are active, unfulfilled (i.e. "5 items are missing construction bots") construction requests outside of pocketbot range
usability: construction bots in your inventory will fly out and fulfill requests that are under the construction area of normal roboports. They don't come back afterwords.
usability: research to increase the range of the pocket port would be nice. I modded the range from 20 to 50 (the same as a normal port) and it made plopping blueprints down WAY easier.

I have gotten an error:
Factorio error dialogue wrote:Error while running the event handler: __PocketBots__/control.lua:70: LuaInventory doesn't contain key getitemstack.
I replaced line 70 ("
playerSettings.armorStack = player.getinventory(defines.inventory.playerarmor).getitemstack(1)") with "
... = player.getinventory( ... ).getcontents()"
It does not throw the error anymore but until someone confirmed this as the right fix, I will not use it, yet. I do not want my world being ruined.
Also, before I completely forget: Awesome mod; It will make tower creep soo much easier.
And I hope, it is dynamic enough for useing any logistics compatible storage, that comes into range.
P.S. Here it is morning now and in the morning, I tend to be more verbose and use a lot of emoticons.
P.P.S.I think, there should be some Factorio specific graphics in the Smilies box. Although
These are my favourite ever!
I'll stop now...

I've been using the following and have had no issues:
Code: Select all
playerSettings.armorStack = player.getinventory(defines.inventory.playerarmor)[1]

I stick it, just because I thing this is super useful and something we would eventually want to have even in the vanilla.

What bug is causing desync in MP while using pocket bots? Is it factorio bug or rather mod one?

Desync's are always factorio bug.
Not always, it's very easy to use local variables and cause desyncs with a mod.

Yeah.. And if the factorio client handled it correctly it wouldn't desync right?

You overestimate the ability of the game to deal with modders' bad code.

You can't ask the game to not desync when you are trying to break things.
