Construction bots not working

Hi,

it seems that my construction bots are not able to execute their duties.
I have provided 2 screenshots, indicating the situation along with a save game.

I have placed a ghost of a belt, next to a roboport and provided belts in a storgae chest, buffer chest and passiver provider chest.
The roport contains a construction bot.

No other jobs are due, especially not in this logistic network.

The personal roboport has not yet been built.

I am pretty sure this used to work, when I last played about a year ago.
Is this a bug or a problem on my side?

Thank you, and best regards,

Michael

The ghost looks weird on the screenshot, it seems like there is a white check mark on it which i don't think is part of the vanilla game.

Are you using mods ?

You seem to have done everything right, but maybe this is not the ghost of a regular yellow belt but some similar looking object added by a mod ?

Whoa!

You nailed it.
Many thanks, this has given me headaches for a week.

The culprit was a mod called "construction planner".
It did exactly what it should - but I didn“t think about it anymore.
Must have added it only lately before I stopped playing the last time.

Alt+C to approve single ghosts
Alt+Shift+C to enable auto-approving all ghosts.
