is there a way to replace broken bots?
nearly 50% of my bots are broken/worked themselfes to death and its getting realy costly to replace my t4 crafter.

That behavior is part of the parent mod Misc. Robots by Haplo.

He hasn't implemented the butchering and repairing features yet. At the moment, there isn't much you can do but sell the broken bots or use developer mode to respawn them.

so dev mode it is :D
thanks for that hint

how do you respawn them ?

in dev mode one the top panel there is a button to open a list of commands. some of them let you spawn items and place things. you need to spawn the station, spawning the bot under "spawn pawn" doesnt work. i dont know which it is specificaly, so you will need to do some minor searching. the spawn item commands are on the middle of the right side

Use "Tool: Try place near thing" its one the right side, after that use search to find the drone you want/need as it will basicly give you a list of every single item in the your game

Can't work it out

ok thanks

movement speed really :( i dont think I can modify carry capacity without hacking / overriding the games internal functions in C# xD

On the stations themselves, that you have built and placed, there's a debug command built in to respawn a broken drone. This is also how you'd fix a drone if there's a patch that just happens to mess one up.

I added "<CarryingCapacity>50</CarryingCapacity>" on the file "RPP_Races" on the META (RPP_Bot) and their carrying capacity changed, it changes to 60% of that number tho, because of their body size. all you have to do is add that in each one of the hauling bots tiers.

thank's @MelonHead I'll look into updating that. Currently I'm a bit busy.

Though from what I recall it's also limited by stack size...

yes, it is. but currently the bots only carry 45, what is low for a hauling bot. and some stacks (with the exception of silver, gold and jade) are above 75, and it would avoid the bot having to make 2 travels for the same resource.
take your time xb I already made the change on my friends game xb
just said it in the case you wanted to put it for the rest of the community ;)

Obtain robotic components?

if i remember, theyre crafted from either the robotics table, or the component work bench.
