I was doing an 2.1 experimental run and I could have sworn you used to be able to allocate repair packs to roboports as a logistic request like you do robots to make sure a specific roboport was kept populated with the minimun amount requested, however I no longer can. And I have loaded my old save (almost a year old) on the lastest 2.0 version and I wasn't able to do so there either. Was this removed in some version and I just missed the changelog? Is it a bug? Or am I suffering from some Mandela effect here?

I don't remember it personnally , and could have missed or forgot but even around 2 years ago, someone suggested that repair packs could be requested by roboport, 117654 which makes me think that it wasn't the case that you could ever request them as you can request robots. I think the slot for repair packs is there for robots to drop them when they come back to the roboport after some repair operation mostly.

yeah, just went and double checked some of the older versions, aswell as some old bases, I 100% Mandela'd myself.
