g Spidertron Builder?

(updated 4 years ago)

I have a problem. I want a Spidertron to be able to use this mod to build an outpost. Any ideas? For example I don't mind if I have to manually place the initial blue print. I just want the Spidertron to automatically place down the Recursive Blueprint but I can't figure out how to make my Spidertron load a blueprint into the box that needs the blueprint to exicute, etc. Blueprints don't have blueprints within them.... And I can't make it work. I have to have a Roboport loaded with drones to accomplish this so it won't work for remote outposts that I have figured out so far. I'm working on an alternative without having to use Recursive Blueprints.

I recommend asking for a standalone Spidertron Blueprint mod in https://forums.factorio.com/viewforum.php?f=33.

That will automatically be compatible with this mod without requiring it.

You could offset an already placed blueprint deployer to achieve the same effect. feed a blueprint deployer and X and Y signal to offset where it places the blueprint - i feel like this would have the same result - sorry for the zombie post
