Enhancing/Upgrading Bots

[Namennaj]

@crinrict I am having the same issue again. So I am sending you the saved game file.

@Namennaj Thanks. I can duplicate the issue on your save. Haven't found a solution though

@crinrict Thanks for checking. What works the one moment don't work the next. I have tried deleting the computer parts/mechanisms after each upgrade. That worked for a few levels, but not anymore. They should just remove these parts and increase the build/upgrade time.

When i try to repair my utiliti bots on the work station, it doesnt give me the option to do so. I only get the option to ´'use'' but its greyed out and says that electronics dont work in the rain (there is no rain and its inside), any way to fix this? Problem is still there when mods are removed

@jenny7020 Do you have your workstation outside/close to the wall and is it raining ?

[jenny7020]

@crinrict hey, there is no rain and i have tried placing it both inside and outside, and i have also tried repairing them in different worlds

[crinrict]

For faster testing, can you send me your save ? I don't really have an util but to test this atm.

@crinrict Sent you a PM, thanks for taking your time

@jenny7020 I think it's related to this bug: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/NEEDS-INPUT-Bot-Enhancement-not-working-Patch-1-60-54/td-p/868...

The greyed out message with the rain does seem connected to the weather. If I change the weather to sunny, it's not greyed out but as it's broken, it's of course not usable anyways.

Snowing as well as cloudy weather seems to trigger it on your save which does seem odd.

I didn't check, how many times have you upgraded them ? Should you be able to upgrade them further ?

Have you ever been able to repair them ?

@crinrict The bots are level 9 and 10, im not able to upgrade the level 9. Yes prevous to the newest patch i had no problem.

I just now created a new bot and broke it, and it works just fine to fix it, so i guess the issue just applies to the old ones for some reason
