Repeat/Loop Rule

I have OCD, so I don't like it when my bots are sitting around being held up.

I've created rules for buildings, the bots go and collect the materials for the foundations.  However, I don't want this on a infinite loop.

Right now the rules are single use, so if I do need to repeat the actions, I have to edit and go.
Can we get a quick Go button without editing, and possible an input to set how many times the rule should be looped?

Yep we have both of those on our suggestion list. Thanks!

Do you also have looping individual tasks?  So you can send a bot to collect X-number of items?

HELP i cant place a repeat and I don't know how to make it do it can you help?!

I've been trying and waiting but that doesn't work!

Developer

If you click the Repeat button it will grab all the instructions and put them inside a Repeat Forever. If you Drag the Repeat button you can drop it anywhere you like and use the Drop Down menu to change what type of Repeat it is.

OK thanks. you have to have 1-3 i think of commands then you put it in because I put like 20 commands and then I cant place it in. But thanks any way :)

Developer

It's possible you ran out of bot memory to add any more instructions?

This game is way too early in development to make a tutorial. Watch some gameplay videos by Denki and look at the tutorial I made here: https://itch.io/t/146446/suggestion-add-a-tutorial
