Hello,

thanks here very much for the help here....

I have a new question......

As is don't really like the bots except the construction bots.....

I looked into the definition of the Roboport, and saw a range-definition for the bots.
I think thats a squared area.

i wounder if it could be defined as a 'ant'-line say 1x100 instead of (i think square) 50x50 area ?

with this definition i would like the logistic-bots very much as a slow (not to render the belts and trains obsolete) transportation system for small quantities of things.
Could also be a step bevore the full blown roboport just as now.
Of course if you exceed all boundarys you could plaster the map with such ports.

( i don't want to start a flame war, just asking if it is possible)

I think it's just defined as a (square based) radius, so you can only really say Range = 50... then you'd end up with a 100x100 tile square, there's no separate X vs Y in the definition.
