Factorio Forums

It seems that construction bots in roboports no longer build things for me on my map. As shown below, there are miners and beacons available in the storage chests/passive providers, which are within range of the roboports yet the construction bots are not doing anything. They DO still deconstruct stuff for me - it's only construction that's an issue. The same is true back at my main base but I figured it would be easier to see an uncluttered view at an outpost.

Am running 0.15.6 and no mods. I did accidentally open the save with creative mod open once or twice - I forgot to disable mods and restart factorio after playing around with blueprints in creative mode. Both times, I quit without saving (I'm 99% sure) but I still sometimes get "entity removed" messages when I load up the save (as shown in second image below). In any case, save file is uploaded here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/vdxpcz2nhua8 ... 7j4ja?dl=0

Please let me know if helpful to have any additional information!

What do the warnings next to your toolbelt say exactly?

It says he has 83,000 ghosts waiting to be built: http://imgur.com/a/zEz8n

Do you have a copy-paste from the previous times I've explained why it works like this?

That would be no challenge, I choose this one instead: 38949

Basically all the orders are considered one by one and with thousands of orders it can take minutes for the system to go thru them all. And what's worst the negative effect wont go away as long as those orders are still active.

Cancel most of it and give orders in smaller chunks, I think that should help make it a lot faster.

Ah, did a bit more googling and found that there's a limit of 600 ghosts processed per second
