reset construction robots

[Wizard]

I think a few bots of mine are stuck somewhere trying to place a building but cant because theres a deconstruction task that cant be done because im not near.

Is there a way to reset them? They ♥♥♥♥ up my other building tasks since they'll never arrive there.

If you can reach them, they can be picked up like a building. Otherwise you could try canceling the job there or manually destroying the thing that's blocking them.

My problem is that I don't know where they are. :D

I think that active bots should return to the closest roboport if you remove the personal roboports from your armour.

I once accidentally removed my pa when deconstructing. The bots got stuck at the location. I assume to make them move you need a storage chest at the network they switched to?

If you are on 1.1 there is a new map filter that shows all active bots. You can look for those that don't move.

That filter is in 1.0 too, just in debug options (f4).
