"You lack the requirements to build an Automatron."

Whenever I try and create a robot, or edit anything involving Ada, it says I don't have the materials even though I definitely do. Is there a way to fix?

[Coldbrew]

I found out the fix for this bug! The issue isn't that it won't let you create robots, but that it won't tell you what materials are needed. Go through and double check you have everything it's asking for, as it won't show you what things are missing. I noticed I was short 5 rubber even though it was saying I had enough, and after buying more it fixed.

then it is still a bug
missing materials show have that option gray out

I FIXED IT! For me i just had to scrap it and rebuild the work station!
EDIT: NEW WAY TO FIX IT, REBUILDING DOESNT WORK. You must have a ton of junk. way more than it says you need. you to a store and buy a ton of random junk till it works.

I have the same problem... i have the materials but it still says i lack the materials...

Same here. I tried to rebuild the robot workstation here and there, tried to build it on different locations. Still doesn't work for me. It always asks for the same specific resources no matter what resources I have.

[SOKOL]

Actually, I just resolved it too. It's exactly what Ricecake said - it doesn't shows you the required resources correctly. Just make sure you have:
Rubber - 6
Circuity - 6
Ceramics - 9
Aluminium - 11
Adhesive - 8

... and it should work!

It didn't work for you because you weren't bugged. I used the console commands to give me 5000 of each needed mat, placed them into the workbench, and it still told me I didn't have enough, but show that I did 6/5000 greyed out.

Same issue here.
I created the robot workbench in sanctuary (where all my stuff is), I definitely have waaaay more than the requirements, but still can't build anything. Even the radar beacon won't stay on ada. Evrytime I put it on, when I exit the workbench it's gone...
Well, I guess I'll wait till it's patched, or modded.

Its hilarious, because that's what people were telling you from the very beginning.

Scrap the work bench and rebuild it elsewhere. I moved it to the car port with the other workbenches when I fixed mine.

I had to take materials in my own inventory to make it work, it didn't take materials from my settlement workbench.

Yeah, I've done that, many times, but still nothing.
I built the damn thing, I can modifiy Ada (change legs, paints, etc...), but that bloody beacon decided it won't stay on.

Oh, yea, that's a different bug. Try to attack her till she kneels, then heal her with a med kit. Then try installing it. There is no affection hit for damaging Ada.
