Is there a way to speed this up? It seems really slow. I have a ton of idle bots but only hear them put down a new tile every 15 - 20 secs. And only one at a time.

Give this a try: http://pastebin.com/raw/WKjTsFHq

Edit: Might lag you to hell, if it does change the tick multiplier.

I love it. Thanks Nebelwolfi

That's a very satisfying gif, Nebelwolfi.

I was concerned that faster concreep speed would cause terrible lag and I do have one user reporting the mod slowing down his factory. Currently, the mod checks every roboport every 10 seconds. At this rate it would take 7 hours for a roboport to fill it's area, assuming no overlap. Assuming perfectly placed linked ports with no logistics overlap, it would take nearly 2 hours. I know an easy optimization I can place to make it go faster so I'll do some testing.

Feel free to upload your save for testing purposes.

the new changes are causing my game to lag pretty badly. also noticed that when it get bad the square shape goes into a stripping line pattern.

what can be changed to make it closer to what it was?

I forgot to stop looking/expanding if there was no concrete available! I fixed this and now it should run smoother, faster, and with better fill.

Note that when the mod updates, the radius gets set to 0 and it make take a minute or two before the radius expands and starts finding new tiles to place.
