Bots allow the movement of resources, they also allow the construction and improvement of buildings. Some bots can attack and defend territories, while others can store resources and others can produce resources.
Below are some of the Bots you should become familiar with. Bots are called "Units" in the programming and Mods. See UnitsList for full list and Bot speeds.
Carrybots
Carrybots allow the transport of resources along Roads. They can carry a maximum of one resource between two road posts. If there are four resources at the arrival road post it is considered to be blocked (full). The Carrybot will wait for a place to be freed up, but they are not happy about that!
Their speed depends on the type of road :
| Road/path type | Speed Boost |
|---|---|
| Dirt Road/Path | +0% speed |
| Stone Road/Path | +50% speed |
| Brick Road/Path | +100% speed |
Stackbots
Stackbots are generated automatically for all buildings, they allow transporting resources from buildings to road posts.
When a resource arrives at a road post, the stack bot of the building that requested the resource will look for this resource and bring it back to this building, and the stock in the building's storage space provided for this purpose.
They also allow loading/unloading of Colony Ship, boats and trains.
Buildbots
Buildbots are used to construct and upgrade buildings. They use the resources that Stackbots put within their reach, then build the building you requested. They do not require any source of energy.
Housebots
Housebots are used to produce energy in residences, a Stack Bot is assigned to them and provides them with the necessary resources for energy production.
