Summary (AI)

Patch 1.0.8 for Machine Mind improves bot behavior by preventing them from unloading prohibited resources into storage and enhancing their pathfinding and road navigation. Carriers now remove disallowed resources faster and can access the shared pool, with new indicators added for unload issues. Several bugs were fixed, including turret functionality on the firing automator’s third floor, correct pause menu access, and the proper button prompt for opening external storage. Additionally, tactical mode has been updated with a movable map frame and an expandable issue window, while blueprint mode now requires prior research for module placement.

Tip: expand all for quick scanning.

Disabled crosshair display for turrets mounted on the firing automator.
