Hi here,

I'm not new in Factorio and I never had issue with it before, but right now, bots are not collecting my trash and I dont know why :/

I got plenty of bots, yellow chest, and I'm in the logistic area but... They're ok to bring me stuff, but not to take back my trash


Sure they're buzzy most of the time (I'm totally lacking of bots right now) but they was not ignoring me like that before :'(

What's going on? Are they mad or something?

Thanks a lot for your help

AFAIK, trash slots have lower priority than other requests. So, you can add more bots or wait a bit until they will have spare time.

And make sure you haven't disabled personal logistics (tick box at top of inventory screen.)

That was indeed them being too busy. I was pretty sur I had a special place in there core and would get processed as a priority task, but ok I guess :/

Now I wonder why I hadn't noticed it before. Maybe jumping from "having bots" to "cant supply my bot army with enough electricity" directly this time was a bad idea.
Since I unlocked the bigger bot pockets and everything came back to normal.

Thanks a lot for your help !!!
