Ape Apps

I'm seeing similar things as well. Win 10 Pro, desktop client. Happened a little bit under .41, now takes about 5 minutes and it starts happening under .43.1.

I've got a gold farm and a clay farm with 10 or so bots working mines and after a little while they just start running around in a circle not actually harvesting. If I exit to the desktop it generally works again for some time and then wigs out.

On a FireFox colony I'm not seeing it, but it's tiny compared to my main colony and the bots have to go pretty far to collect the resources on that map, so it may have something to do with size of the map or density of the bots maybe?

How many bots do you have on your big colony? Tons?

same with me. I have 10-20 bots bastecklein. Windows 10 store.

I've got 15 gold bots, 10 claybots, probably 5-6 drones, 10 alien bots, 4 megas, and a few builders and advanced builders still running around.

A little more info. I self destructed all my gold and clay bots and created 4 of each. After saving and exiting, so far they all seem to be behaving properly. Definitely seems to be an upper boundary to the number of bots we can have.

I take it back. Even with only the 4 gold bots and 4 clay bots I now have a gold bot just going back and forth across a 6 tile stretch where there's no mine to harvest or build.

I just noticed this morning when I started up a new Ice World this is happening in Edge as well. I only have a total of 9 bots (2 tundra, 2 LIS rovers, 1 Gold, 2 Builder, 1 water, 1 Advanced builder) on a mega sized map, and when I left my Edge tab to go do something else and came back, the tundra bots were sliding around the map in their harvesting action. It's almost like it was trying to display what was happening while my focus was on another window or something.

I have several maps for all races. And so far my human map was the only one that didnt suffer from this bug, till today.

I have the same problem With Builder-bots. It helps sometimes to Close the app completely and start up again. Then they will build for about a minute, and then get stuck. In my game, the People get stuck too. Just standing there in the streets, really creepy looking. I have Version 0.43.0 if that helps :-)

Just made some changes to the web version of the game related to path finding. If you are having this issue on web, do a hard reload and play for a bit and let me know if it gets any better. It's sort of a stab in the dark, so don't get your hopes up. Mine still works, lol.
