Looks like there is more than 1 bot there.

Never seen factorio line up item icons staggered like that, so I'd agree with Fish.
I would guess that they've been there for awhile, and that they're waiting for a storage chest to drop the items into, based on your post.

Re: [0.11.5] Construction bots multiple items
Question: was this put into not a bug because construction bots are able to take more than 1 item or because it looks like there is more than 1 construction bot there?
If the latter, I'll say that I just experienced this and can reproduce it.
Steps to reproduce:
Stand near a damaged item, wait for a bot with repair pack to come repair it.
Wait for bot to finish repairing, and assuming the bot doesn't use the repair pack, use deconstruction blueprint on any nearby item.
Bot still holding repair pack picks up the item set to deconstruct.

Huh. Never really noticed it, but seen it a bunch.
I would say not a bug because the repair tool is held in a dedicated mount, while other items use the manipulator arms.
Or that's my internal logic to it, and it makes sense, since repairing requires control/application of the tool, whereas building only requires picking up and putting down (in the Factorio world of course).

No, there is only one bot there. He was in the middle of fixing my "boiler's turrets" field, that just resisted another attack.n9103 wrote:Never seen factorio line up item icons staggered like that, so I'd agree with Fish.

I just wondered if this is intended or a bug, never really thought about "dedicated mount for repair packs", but it makes sense. Devs?n9103 wrote:Huh. Never really noticed it, but seen it a bunch.
