Getting the bots to saw logs....

I'm teaching a bot to use the sawbench to turn logs into planks.....

So far I've shown him all the steps, the first two steps are: "Move to General Storage" then "Take from General Storage"

I trained him on log storage, but he immediately started taking from plank storage.... so when he arrives at the sawbench he's carrying a plank, not a log.

Ok that's strange, I've not seen that bug before. Are you sure you clicked the Log Storage? Try training again?

Thanks for the prompt response - wow, it's the middle of the night here! :)

I tried again and success! I've got a couple of nested loops - the outermost is "while plank storage not empty". Within the loop he's going to storage (log), taking a log to the sawbench, using it, then an inner loop 1 - pick up planks until hands full followed by inner loop 2 - take planks to plank storage until hands empty.

I'm sure this is what I tried before, but can't argue with the results - it's working perfectly, thank you - looks like it was my mistake somewhere.....

Cheers,   clumsy.

\o/ No problem, glad it's working for you!
