[2.0.41] Item request for construction robot not being constructed by personal roboport

[ArEyeses]

I put an item request for a construction robot into a roboport and attempted to construct the item request with a spidertron.
When this didn't work I also tested regular chests and the player character's personal roboports, which all have this issue.
(Note the roboport was in an outpost network so couldn't fulfill this request from e.g. storage chests)

Observed behaviour:
The item request does not get constructed, and a missing materials notification is shown, despite the spidertron / character having construction robots in their inventory and their personal roboport active.
This happens even if I have more construction robots than the robot limit of the personal roboport in my inventory.

Expected behaviour:
The item request to be construct, in this case one robot from the personal roboport to carry another robot to the container. This is what happens with an item request for the other items I tested.

This seems to be consistent, it still happens after restarting Factorio.
(The bug only affects personal roboports, regular roboport networks can fill these requests if there are construction robots available in storage/provider chests)


I'm wondering if this issue is because the character/spidertron inventory is a shared for construction material and construction robots, and maybe all construction robots are excluded from what is available for construction?

I've attached a copy of my log in case that's needed.

Thanks for the report. This is intended - a mobile logistic network can not take a robot from its own inventory since it may be trying to take itself from its own inventory (which obviously won't work).
