You'll need to craft a robot body using the mod's crafting recipes, then place it down and interact with it to customize its appearance and assign it a role. Once you've given it the appropriate tool and item (like a hoe and wheat for a farmer), it will start working—just make sure it's connected to a Docking Station so it has a home base.

Each role determines what your robot does: Farmers plant and harvest crops with a hoe, Miners break stone and ore with a pickaxe, Haulers move items between chests with a clipboard, and Bodyguards follow you and fight enemies with a sword and shield. You assign a role by giving your robot the matching tool and item.

Robots run on batteries that you charge at the Docking Station using either a generator or solar panels. You can craft different battery types to suit your needs, and Green disk upgrades will make your robots use less energy overall.

Black disks toughen your robot and preserve tool durability, Blue disks extend its working range from the station, Green disks reduce battery consumption, and Red disks speed up work but drain energy faster. You can equip multiple disks to customize your robot's performance.

Netherite Plating offers the best armor but significantly slows your robot down, so it's best for stationary workers like farmers. If you need your robot to move quickly, use Charged Steel Plating instead, which gives good protection while actually boosting speed.

Yes, if you equip them with Aqua Motors as a utility part, they can swim and continue working underwater. This is useful for underwater mining or farming operations.

You need to connect them to a Smart Hub at your Docking Station, which coordinates their tasks so they don't duplicate work. Without proper hub setup, multiple robots in the same area will target the same resources.

Equip it with a Propeller Unit as a utility part, which allows it to hover low above the ground. This helps robots navigate terrain and reach higher areas more efficiently.

Yes, you can equip them with Arc Welders as a utility part, which slowly repair your robot's durability when it's idle at the Docking Station. Alternatively, Black disk upgrades reduce tool wear so repairs are needed less often.

Give your robot a pickaxe and cobblestone to assign it the Miner role, equip it with Blue disks so it can work far from the station, and use Green disks to conserve battery power during long mining sessions. Consider adding Charged Steel Plating so it moves quickly through tunnels.
