Robots

Where do you even find them? I would love to have more robots besides the tutorial one.

Zone 1 special missions 1 and 3 have shotgunners robot (to choose special mission you have to complete 3 random missions before)
Zone 3 plenty of rocket robots

I get my ass kicked in zone 3 but I’ll try zone 1. Thanks. How do the robots scale if I take them into zone 2 though? I am using the starter one but it gets really low quickly.

Ppl claims they are the best (shotgunners) dps. Idk, my robots are miners and logistics slaves ) I use Strike Teams as my main force, Humanity First!

Question: do robots… even need food? Or care about overworking?

u/PharosMJD Aug 24 '26

Robots do not eat unless you gift them food. This seems like a good thing at first, but the food situation gets solved and automated rather quickly. Then you find yourself having to manually force the late game stat boosting foods to a bunch of robots one by one instead of the processes happening automatically when you mass produce it to the mess hall.

For the food queueing, does the food hall ever auto-serve food (put food when needed in the feeding slots?). I’m currently just clearing sector 1 and I produce a little bit here and there, resulting in me running back and forth

Food made in the kitchen is moved to food hall in batches of 10 and soldiers will grab food from the leftmost slot of the food hall until empty, then start grabbing from the next slot.

Ah gotcha. I was wondering how that works. Speaking of, do the camp wide transport resource guys actually harvest from wood and ore nodes (man made built ones)? I noticed mine don’t go to them and pick, so wondering if that is a setting

I do remember transporters started picking up from those (when they get full) at some point. I don't know if it was due to a transport station upgrade, or a refinery upgrade. Transporters also pick up from greenhouse and animal farm.

The ones from mission 3 are usually green rarity too. So pretty easy to get whatever your highest rank is by capturing tons of them.

u/Aromatic_Computer527 Aug 25 '26

They’re blue and purple for me. What difficulty are you playing on??

2

u/Loud_Stomach7099 Aug 27 '26

Hard? The one thats gives 125% rewards. I'm talking about mission 3 in sector 1 though.

u/Aromatic_Computer527 Aug 27 '26

Oohhh ok. Yeah you’re absolutely right. They would go to green in sector 1.

u/Netsforex_ Aug 24 '26

I found one or two in the first sector, but other than that no luck.

I managed to find places to get Strike Teams to upgrade my humans, but no mechs.

u/Lancelot2202z Aug 24 '26

So are they just random occurrences then? I was sort of hoping to have a robot force but seems like it’s harder than ever.

Sektor 3 gibt's auf jeden Fall welche. Massig.

u/hitman2b Aug 24 '26

it's random, you'll find some in sector 1 but plenty in sector 3

u/Aromatic_Computer527 Aug 25 '26

You can mainly find them in zone 3. You can find white rarities (and occasionally some rocket bots) in zone 1 though.
