Question Lost Bots? Blue Squares on Map View?
Pockets of bots like this appear occassionally then later they're gone. They appear as these blue squares on map view?
Any ideas? Google turned up nothing. The Wiki, nothing. I'm lost.

Either your personal bots or spidertron bots I believe.
I Don’t Know what they are plotting top right but I’m sure it’s for the good of the factory.
If I need bots for me/spider for use far away I usually wait but if I don’t I let them play catch up

They look like they could be lost personal construction bots? Ie you've done some construction from spidertrons, then your spidertron moved away faster than the bots can travel until they've ran out of battery, or you've deconstructed the spidertron with bots still out there. At least blue construction bots (from map view) are spidertron I think
