This is one of the best mods of all time.

@The Autistic Page
that isnt due to a mod conflcit its due to this version of bars beeing deadly out of date and already having had probs with grinding unowned subgrids like wheels beforehand while it was still maintained.
i suggest searching a still maintained version of bars and look if you have the same problem there or not and you have there a far better chance to get it fixed.

or you do the same as me and switch over to aie and have fun with robot helpers.

For some reason even when all the settings are correct some of my units GRIND my base or ships. This is when it is set to welding only and grind colors are also off. Any idea if there are conflicts with specific other mods?

For those that can't find the blocks: they are gated by the progression system.

Change the world/global settings. Check the pinned thread titled "Block Settings".

is there a way to make it more faster?

@fyreeater
dont think this version of bars is getting an update anytime in the visible future, though there are still maintained versions of it out there.

Is the build and repair going to get updated. I want to use it. But it has been crashing on some games.

@Swiftie @CaveDweller
this version of bars is atm deadly out of date and looks like Dummy08 is no longer around to update it, but there are others versions of bars out there stil beeing kept up to date or even aktivly beeing worked on.

i for my part switched over form bars to aie as i find that one far more fun.

Just jumping back into the game and this mod seems to be dead. I cant even find it in the build menu any more. RIP

@lordgamer7225

I'm going to say doubtful considering this mod appears to no longer be updated. Though I do hope something similar appears. A lot of my builds are designed with this mod as a core component

is there any plans to move to space engineers 2?

@McStone
id like to point out that you might want to look for a more up to date version of bars, there are multiple avaible inside the workshop.

besides that the wheels beeing eaten is due to se ownership handling and any subgrid without a ownable block (which wheels are) counting as kinda neutral and thus keeping the default janitor setting of janitoring unowned and neutral stuff results in them beeing eaten.

Thank you for this mod, it is an essential on our server and I think most others now. It does, however, famously love eating the wheels off of rovers. Even if it is on the same rover grid while you are actively driving around. Is it possible to add a toggle to 'ignore wheels' from the janitor? Even if this results in a hard exception to ignores all wheels even if painted, the tradeoff to hand grind them is worth not having them get randomly eaten off.

Also, the priority list is broken, it only grids furthers/nearest first.

Thank you again for this most excellent mod!

@ThiRalÐ

Yes! Near the end of the description you'll find the link to a script that helps automate a lot of that!

Tell me, is it possible to tell Nanobot to make the missing parts? It's a bit of a pain to do them ourselves. Thanks for your answers!

Running into an issue as of late, unsure if anyone else is having the same. but no matter what i try i cannot get large grid build systems to work most of the time, the od time i can get them to weld, but for the life of me i cannot get them to grind, ive set the colours and the priority but no dice. any help would be appreciated.

@Жириновский
that would be the one that is the most up to date one i know of.

@Abisius thanks for letting us know about there being other branches. I'm gonna use the SKO85 one, Nanobot Build and Repair System (Maintained).

@Abisius which fork would you recommend? From which user?

So, is it me or is the grind priority list broken? No matter what I set it to, it either does the further possible blocks or the nearest possible blocks. Oftentimes resulting in it grinding armor before it ever gets to any of the more important bits. I've set armor to the lowest priority. I've set it to the highest. I've set it to nearest, to furthest, to smallest, etc.

@Жириновский
its most probably one of the probs having creeped up over time due to this version of bars beeing deadly out of date and as it looks not having an update anytime soon.
i suggest using a more up to date version of bars.

I ran into a problem. Downloaded the blueprint (from my other save). 1/4 of the ship was welded, and then the nanobots began to repair themselves (?) Iskra simply jumps on the nanobot blocks themselves and consumes resources without creating anything. How can I fix this? We play on a dedicated server.

when they are trying to build a blueprint off of a projector, it will start welding a block and then that block will disappear and will infinitely try to weld that block even though its invisible.

@ Adrios

are you sure it was repairing and not disassembling? =P

Love the Mod, plugged it into my ship and it repaired thing that I didn't know were broken.

If you have progression enabled then you might not have it unlocked yet. Check to see where it is in progression. It's probably somewhere in the assembler tech tree.

help guys nanobot build and repair work in creative mode only the block doesn't show in survival

Does anyone know of a complimentary mod that adds some kind of maintenance task. i.e. a nanobot assembler?

I know the idea of the build and repair system is to make it easier to make things. But I think some kind of mod to serve as a material input to the build and repair machine would be cool. For example a nanobot factory that requires iron to build nanobots, and the nanobots only last for so long.

Some people will probably think this is a stupid idea which is fair enough but just wondering if there is anything like that out there?

Hallo i have a problem with the mod on my server, i changed the range of them. But the range seems to keep resetting to like 200m. And i dont know why.

It tries to grind in the safe zone from my experience but can't grind a block fully.

Will build and repair grind black if the build and repair is in a safe zone and the grid needing to be dismantled is in a safe zone?

what are the tools doing in the inventory. is this based for speed. so if i put higher end tools in it and more quantity it wil operate faster?

@Junoh: try unchecking "grind unowned blocks"

@CaveDweller You're probably right but I'm wondering why it picks and chooses which wheels to kill. If it always grinds down the wheels then I'd be able to understand it.

@Junoh

from what I understand, it has something to do with the wheel itself being a sub grid of the wheel assembly. I think the way to keep the wheel is to turn off grind unowned blocks. I might be mistaken though

Why does this thing sometimes grind down wheels? It's not a huge deal since I can jump and attach a wheel but for some reason I'll just be driving normally and it'll decide that I've got one too many wheels. I'll also leave a rover at my base and come back to it missing 2-3 wheels.

where can I get that script?

@inspector de Patas, there is a script for that

Can you give it an option that if crafting materials are missing to have it add them to queue if it is connected to an assembler with raw materials? It would be really helpful rathen than be guessing what I am missing.

Hi, can you make another version of it for small grid?

how to change effects color ?

i know this is an old mod but is the smallgrid unable to work in fly mode? no matter what i do it seems to only weld connected grids. it has power, its on, set to fly, weld only, within range, has components. anyone else have this?

@Mikoto Takamachi
even further back 29.08.2021 outgoing from the information on the top right of the workshop page and the patchlog.

outgoing from my stand of informations i would say this version of bars is no longer maintained, though there are a bunch of still maintained versions of bars avaible in the steam workshop.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2111073562 that one was original just rebalancing but looks like it has atm the most maintained state and if you dont want the ressource rebalance there is one version linked in that mods moddescription with the opriginal ressource balance.

i have myself switched over to aienabled https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2596208372 as i find it far more fun than bars.

Does anyone know if this mod is still being maintained? Last update was in 2022
