Logistics drones won't deliver requested items to player
I have a roboport with log drones, I have items I want in my inventory being put into provider chests, chests are in range of roboport and in the same circuit, personal logistics is checked on, and the correct items are marked as requested on the inventory screen. What am I missing?

Log drones deliver just fine to requester chests but not to me!

You also have to be in the logistic zone "orange color" If you are outside of that say in the construction zone which is green then they will not deliver to you.

Either no space in your trash inventory, nothing highlighted, or you need a modular armor with personal roboport not the land roboport. Right click on armor to see modular armor not light/heavy.

No, personal roboports have nothing to do with logistics robots

Only armor that has an equipment grid that can accept equipment, like personal roboports, can be used with the logistic system to trash or request items.

That is not how things are in the vanilla game. You are either mistaken or using some kind of mod that breaks the game.

I've never used mods. I've also never had the logistic system work for personal deliveries If I was wearing any armor that was pre-modular tech. In that case I have the same issues as the OP.

Just to let it be known, I have Mk.1 Power Armor with a personal roboport in the grid. I have no idea what i’m doing wrong. Do I have to have log drones in my inventory? Is that the only way they’ll deliver to the player?

No, you don't need log drones on your person.

Post a screenshot of your request window? if you are in range and there is products available to give to you then it will go green, if there is no products available then it will be red.

Right now I only want to have the drones bring me the solar panels and accumulators (both currently in provider chests). Surely there's something i'm not seeing.

Aha! Thank christ that was driving me nuts! I had set up the inventory long before I had actually tried using the drones so I must have payed the minimum/maximum hardly any thought. Much appreciated!
