now that this mod is deprecated, what should i use?
https://mods.factorio.com/mod/lokisbotsfork or https://mods.factorio.com/mod/Robot-World-Updated-For-SpaceAge (both of which haven't been updated within the last month but you wont get a better base bots mod (nanobots works if you dont care about it being base bots))

crash on boot?
ping me on steam (friend code is: 57118133) and i'll fix your issue (i sometimes use invis mode fyi)
tough luck buddy
