Factorio Forums

Hey,

I'm playing on factorio 0.17.1 (standard) and I came across an issue where my roboport isn't functioning all of the sudden. I was playing for some time and before it worked properly as usual. I have loaded batteries in my power armor MK2, I have it equipped and am within range of the construction/deconstruction area. I have the required items in my inventory and still it does nothing. I tried removing the armor or the roboports and adding them in again (as it could be that some bots were traveling) but even with a 100 spare bots in my inventory nothing happened.



This happened when I traveled to a somewhat further region of the map, but I don't see how that could be the any cause for issues. A quick search of the web only led to some posts from inexperienced players but seeing as I think to know the game pretty well by now (after 5y of playing) I do believe I've tried everything in my power to fix this. The standard roboport loaded with bots does work still but thats of no use to me.

Is this a know issue? Has it already been fixed in a later release?

Thanks in advance.

I believe you might have turned it off. Check the top, far right button of the hotbar (not the info button).

Wow, I feel like a newb again. It did seem way too clean to be a bug. Verri thank for your quick reply. Still some getting used to the 0.17 mechanics so it seems.

Thanks!
